   Did your brother appear to have a good time despite being made     
   fun of?

    DS>   I use the BBS games to keep my mind sharp. The late Nancy   
    DS>   Backus, who passed away recently, could clean your clock

   Was/is Sean's version interBBS capable?  The one we played     
   delivered packets that you then "load" into your local game. When     
   done, you send off the updated packets that have your play.   
      
   Later, we discovered a live version of the game where you can     
   play with other people at any time of day.
