This is my first post to Fidonet in 30 years.

Some things never change.

Z1C is still a wacko, but I like him anyway.
Z2C is still a wacko, but I like him anyway.

Fidonews still sucks, but nobody does anything to make it better. Somehow, it still sucks even when it only contains automated posts. I don't blame Bjorn. I haven't learned how to make umlauts yet, we didn't have those in my day.

Can you believe those characters over on fSXNet re-discovered Universal Mayhem? I spent most of 1990 playing it.

I suppose it's time to setup a system and play along again. 1:129/146 is still available. I'll try not to take over the TEEN echo this time.

Yes!

I don't think it still exists. ;-)

Bye, Wilfred.

Greg,

Please be specific ... just a mere whacko or something better? 8-)

I'd up-vote this message, but alas, FTN doesn't support that. :-)
