Ancient Threads....aka "diggin in da dirt"

My first board posts go back to about 1990, I think, but were all on KC local BBS's. I've never been anal enough to archive messages, so I wouldn't have anything to share.

My first was more of a chat room than a board. It was back in the early 80s. 1982, I think. Maybe as early as 1981. I hooked up to the Dartmouth U. computer from the Bates College computer. Dialed in from home on my dad's (he's a professor) Heathkit terminal. It was just the two schools that were linked back then. Those college students just loved having a junior high kid talking with them.
