BBS

I had a long conversation with a friend on the phone tonight about being geeky. I was having fond memories of the BBS I started when I was 16. Those were really great times. There was this kid in Ohio that also ran a BBS using the same software (Hermes) on a PowerMac 6100. What a lucky bastard I thought he was. All I had was a Quadra 660av, although I loved that machine when I first got it. I remember the first months of running GTI BBS (named after my car) and the huge phone bills that my father recieved. All those phone calles to Alaska. Some where online, I can't find it now, is a listing of BBSs that used to be. I believe it was compiled from a list of FidoNet members? It was really fun to find GTI listed on there with the phone number. Todays RPGs just aren't the same.
