I wanted Thor only for Fidonet when I first tried it, but I was spoiled
by having already used Spot.

I found it absolutely weird. Things like deleted messages stayed
there until you clicked some button that had a name that seemed to mean
nothing. Was it Catch-up?

Sure, people's perception is shaped by what they ahe seen or not seen.
Maybe I liked Spot because it was similar to Q-Blue that I had beeen
using.

Anyway I have started getting used to the way MD2 works so I will
probably never use anything else for NGs now.
