No.  The only access to the BBS is through POTS.  They do have a
Compuserve ID that they check occasionally, though.

I only know of one, but it's a gem.  Gordon Lipford has put together
the Legends Data Base (LDB), currently on version 3.0.  It allows you to
create a colorful graphic depiction of the map, enter force info, including
type, character statistics, and location statistics.  It will keep track of
guild and market info, marks rivers, roads and powerpoints, and will search
for any resources that you have entered in the data base.  For example, if
you need cinderoak, you can search anywhere, or within a certain radius of
some central point.  Likewise with characters and forces.  On the whole, a
very fine accessory to the Legends player.
	Unfortunately, there is only one problem.  Gordon has moved recently,
and I have neither his address or phone number.  Assuming I can ever get in
touch with him again, I will post the contact info here.  By the way, the
registration fee for this fine program is only $10.

Well, here it is.  ;)
