Don Bindley, Systems Operator of the FireBurners BBS. 
         
        About FireBurners:  Having started up only a couple of years ago it 
still is in its infancy as a system.  Presently the BBS is only two (2) lines 
with full InterNet access.  FireBurners runs 75 on-line games, on-line publi-
cations, on-line chat, 225 message areas and 10 CDs are available.  Prior to 
the InterNet being incorporated into the system FireBurners boasted nearly 
1000 message areas.  

        FireBurners is also the official North American distribution / 
registration site for the Arrowbridge door game. (SEE the latest 
released version following this article).  They are a distribution site for 
Digital Interface Software (writers of Future Runner, Nuclear Wars,
Board Base Pro, Word Mix, Rebel Kingdom and soon to be released Island 
Empires) and Seth Able doors (Legend of the Red Dragon and Planets).  All 
this is run under Wildcat 4.01.  FireBurners is always looking for other
writers of software that would need an additional distribution and /or 
registration site.  

        Pricing policy for BBS is as follows:  Individually, One month $5.00, 
6 month $27 and one year $45 while family prices are $10, $45 and $60 re-
spectfully.  InterNet Prices are: $25 a month for BBS subscribers while it is
