 NB> Well, then, it's about time you came out of lurking... <G>  

Just figuring out the best time to jump in when a topic springs to mind.

 NB> Was she also an Abolins...?  Not sure if I remember the name...

Yes.  Full name would have shown up in the echos as "Vija Abolins".


 AA>> She also followed COFFEE_KLATSCH and a few others.

 NB> I never got into that echo... I was very active (until it all moved to
 NB> the web) in the Genealogy echoes... 

I didn't realize that it "moved to the web".  It still seems to be a fairly
active fidonet echo from what I can tell.


 AA>> I think I tried to email or netmail you about something (many years
 AA>> ago), but then I learned you were in the hospital.

 NB> I probably responded once I got home...   Perhaps that was in 2005 when
 NB> I broke my ankle....?

Yes.. 2005 sounds about right.  My fidonet journey ended in 2006, after my main
 pc crashed. All the echomail history is probably unrecoverable.  I still have
the original harddrive (but it is OS/2 format)  Before the pc crashed, the
harddrive was already making a lot of clicking noises.
