   The best incarnation of my BBS was with TBBS...   
      
   Used FLAME to toss echomail for fidonet PIMP for Internet e/mail Usenet and a   
   host of other add ons.  The Author was pretty cool to... worked for NASA.  I   
   actually used TBBS first when I left the old Atari BBS Express.  I wrote the   
   authors and let them know I was in high school and used BBS as a "science"   
   project.  (Actually did) and they sent me a complimentary copy of it... and   
   shortly after that got two USR 14.4 modems.  My science project was using a   
   BBS to collaborate an laboratory experiment with other people across the   
   world.  I had my 1/4 page of fame in a magazine article.   
      
   I ran a BBS in some form since the 300 baud days in the 1980's as a middle   
   schooler.
