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.
