    * Sysops: To receive the Alabama UFO echo netmail The Frontier BBS at
              3607/20 or Call the Frontier at 1-205-739-1469.

    Purpose:   To  primarily discuss UFO and Astral events ocurring in  the 
    state of Alabama.  However, since so many boards across the country now 
    get this feed,  UFO and Astral discussions in general are allowed.  The 
    Frontier BBS and the Alabama UFO echo encourages and promotes free  and 
    intelligent discussion of the UFO experience and Astral events. 

    Policy:  Policy and regulations of the echo do not vary much from other 
    echos.  Below are some of the most important: 
    
    1) 
       First and Foremost NO 'flame' messages will be allowed on this echo. 
       Flames should be taken to the netmail area.  They have no place in a 
       public echo. 

    2) Discussions should center around UFO or Astral events and incidents. 

    3) This echo may be distributed freely to other boards that request it. 
       If possible,  the sysop should send a netmail message to 3607/20  or 
       leave  a message to me in this echo when their BBS begins  receiving 
       this echo. 

    4) This  echo is open to the general public and should be placed  in  a 
       public echo area of your bbs. 

    5) Advertisements for COMMERCIAL GAIN are strictly prohibited.  I  have 
       no objections if BBS #'s are posted providing the BBS is free to the 
       public and is related in some way to the UFO phenonema. 

    Short  History:   The Alabama UFO Echo began as the Alabama UFO SIG  in 
    January  of  1988.  It began as a way for users in  Alabama  to  report 
    UFO's/Astral events and to discuss them. It soon became apparent by the 
    out  of  state traffic that others outside the state  of  Alabama  were 
    interested  in this area as Alabama is one of the UFO "hotbeds"  in the 
    nation. When new software came online in May of 1989 this area was made 
    into an echo and is now available to any board that wishes to carry it. 

    As of May 3rd, 1990 the following boards carry the Alabama UFO Echo:
