This list is only as good as its grapevine; many thanks to those who feed it!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The BBSs listed here were open to the public in the Hartford and/or Manchester
local-call area when last verified; those not flagged as status-unknown (?) or
down (-) were verified 09-09-94 or later.  But, since boards continually open
and close, WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK to keep the list current; flagged boards will
will soon be marked closed if no indication of impending return is received.
