There was a dialup line within my local calling area. I picked The Cellar off a list of BBSes in Delaware Valley Computer User, a free newspaper that I used to pick up at Tower Records.

I have just realized there are a number of anachronisms in my post. I will just add that I had to drive uphill in the snow both ways to get to the Tower Records, where I frequently purchased Cassette Tapes and the occasional book. My car had a manual transmission, no power steering, no air conditioning, and an AM Radio.
