Re: BBS's, Remember them?

Stu died in 2012. A lot of us 'old' guys remember him and the rest of PitNET (129).

I actually have been archiving a lot of the old BBS stuuf the past few weeks for some odd reason.

Feeling old myself I guess and want to see the stuff from my younger days.

(1982-1999)

I'm sure he doesn't remember me as I was just a kid with a PC at the time - but he was a great mentor to me with BBSs and Fidonet. Anyone know an e-mail address for him? I just wanted to say thanks to him some 25 years later.
