Summary: 

I posted the preceding article before reading all of the recent controversy.
However, I still believe that it is correct, and it does describe accurately
how ascii express works.

(And by the way, I mind someone saying that I don't know what I'm talking
about, in case you didn't guess before posting.  I do know what I'm talking
about.  I was not referring to the history of the protocols, I was referring
to their current state.  Ward Christensen, in the current usage as far as I
have seen, is a special case of xmodem protocol where block 0 is a header
block which indicates the filetype.)
