   Just a few months after I got the C=64, 1541 Disk Drive and 300 baud   
   modem (in 1984) someone gave me a local phone number to call a BBS that   
   was for Commodore Computer users.   
   AFAIK that BBS wasn't connected to a Network as FIDO is.   
      
   Some time later I used my C=64 to call a BBS that was on the GT POWER   
   Network so I could learn something of what MS DOS and Windows 3.1 was   
   about.   
      
   I read messages from people all over the United States and a few who   
   lived in England.   
      
   I learned about FIDO BBSs later when I seen phone number for them in   
   the Origin Line on the bottom of some of the messages I'd read, and   
   so I started calling some of them with my Commodore PC.   
      
   On FIDO I started reading the QUIK_BAS echo as well as other echos.
