hey list
just returned from a short(50mile) winter ride on my trusty old
klr.she started right up and after a few minutes on the enrichener we
took off.the roads are not that bad (except for road salt....yuck!)
plenty of clear lanes,and the best part is all of the cage drivers
thought i was a freak'n lunatic for being out there.they stayed well
away from me.....cool
all in all it was a blast,people waved,blew
horns and enjoyed seeing someone else be as stupid as they would have
liked to be. gotta love bikers!

Riding in the winter is pretty cool, the older folks shake their heads,
the younger ones wave, and the kiddies just stare.

It would be reporting the speed of the connection between the modem
and the computer, which is not very relevent unless it is less than
the connect speed between the modems.>

The 56k connect won't likely be happening in both directions through
the modem. The data will come to you at 56k but you would be sending
data out a much less than that.
Most comms software set the computer to modem speed faster than the
modem to modem connect speed to cater for the data compression-in-
hardware capabilites of most modems.
