How did you find The Cellar???

But what posessed you to use "cellar" (or "celalr"??) as search term?

Are they still around? I personally don't know of any. (Unlike The Cellar, a lot of the small ones died when there was a disk crash and the sysop had no backups, or the sysop's parents made him move out and get a job, etc. etc. And several of the big ones that survived became ISPs or were slurped up by ISPs.) But given the affection of some people for older technology, I'd be suprised if there weren't a few BBSes of some kind floating around out there.
