Yes, I know.. I may not have my own telephone line at that time, so I 
did never ran a fulltime BBS.. I do now..

In many ways.. But without I really doubt that I would be here..

Many more do have it in that way, us there are here, reading fidonet 
bbses, visiting other and maybe running their own.

But I bet there is still people out there, which is still missing the 
feeling of working with BBSes.. But they don't have a clue, that fidonet 
is still running, and there is still many boards out there...

Remember, BBSes did have a big value for many person, so they may not be 
easy to forget.

Regards,
Bo
