   Cool. :-) I never got the bug to be a sysop - I was still fairly   
   new to computers. Yes, I had owned a CoCo 2 earlier and knew   
   BASIC, but not networking, etc.   
      
   I did get VERY active immediately in INTELEC echo when The Fridge   
   was a new BBS in town and became a moderator not too far down   
   the road. I met the sysops in person and 'helped' a little on   
   things, but never got the bug. :-)
