   Hi again...

A BBS is and Electronic Bulliten Board System - Basically, it's the same as
this is, only the computer is a Micro in someones home, running software
that allows people with Modems to dial in, and leave messages and chat with
each other.  There are also networks of these types of computers.  Ours
is a member of FIDONet, which connects many of these systems together,
thus getting you in touch with thousands of systems all over the world.

We had exchanged messages, Rich and I, for several months, and at a gathering
at the Monster (a bar in the Village here) from the BBS, we met... well, sort
of.  I was so scared to actually "meet" face to face, that I gave my friend
my number at home to give to him, and ran like hell.  He called the next day,
and that night, I went to his Apt.....   and never left!!

(smile)
