   Shhhhh... don't date me... RA v0.04 was exciting times... I think I ran   
   versions beyond that.  I should be able to unlock the multi-line.  I got wooed   
   into other BBS software due to more multilines and etc.   
      
   I ran TBBS prior to that and it just kept becoming too much of a money pit...   
   especially for someone who was only a middle school brat and bought it all from   
   cutting grass in the summer and doing whatever.  My board did do quite nicely   
   recovering operations funds when I charged for access to the doors and all.   
      
   Of all the software that I ever run, I can honestly say RA was the most   
   enjoyable one that I every ran.  I was good friends with Steve and John   
   Richardson don't know where they are now... Joho and Andrew came to visit them   
   in Louisville... very nice people.   
      
   I know that you have helped me much in the past but your message unlocked that   
   blockage from my TBI... I can't remember a lot of things.  I was in Fido much   
   longer than as 1:11/60... don't know the exact dates I started with RA, but my   
   users much preferred TBBS over RA, I much preferred RA over TBBS especially   
   when JAM came out.  I think 0.04 was still Hudson only.   
      
   Any chance you can make the sofware for UUCP and SMTP available for FREQ?  Or   
   FTP.  And does Bruce still answer his e-mail?   
      
   Thank you millions... not so much for the software advice but for getting the   
   old memory going again.  Now is there a form of Killfile for the JAM message   
   base to nuke some of the newsgroup spam.  Since Google took it over things have   
   gotten better with spam in the newsgroups but if I ever crossed paths with John   
   Kinal I think it would not be a pretty site.  Sorry he lost his mom but his   
   spam is LEGENDARY.
