>Is Ward christian[sen] the person referred to in Hackers?
 
I believe he's mentioned briefly.
 
>Also, is his BBS still up?
 
No. Ward was running the original CBBS until about three years ago,
when he turned it over to someone else and decided to pursue different
interests instead. I believe the system has since gone down. When I
was calling, about four years ago, it had about a thousand users in its
userlog and got several hundred messages a day, mostly on very
technical topics.
