CO-sysop?? It was my board! It was my phone line! BANNED!!!
1. You're no longer a moderator here, you can't ban me. *
2. I was thinking of Michael Raugh's board; I think you guys both used the same name. I had forgotten about yours.
4. I think Michael saw this board, although without posting, A few years ago he sent me an e-mail to say I was the Ray Gordon of this board. That hurt.
5. Speaking of hurt, when I was originally calling your board, I was in Silver Spring [Maryland] and your number was local to me. When I moved temporarily about 7 miles to my sister's place in Arlington [Virginia] (but took my computer and modem with me), your number was a toll call, but toll numbers in the 301 area code that were part of the Washingon Regional Dialing areA had no "dial 1 first" warning for area code 703 callers and I didn't know it was about 6c a minute. My sister was pissed I'd run up about $50 in toll charges that month.
* Edit: This rminds me of an episode of
Family Ties when something they said hit me like a ton of bricks. The parents do not approve of something Mallory did, so the father says to her, "That's it, little lady, you're grounded." and she responds with, "You can't ground me, I'm over 18." and walks off. He says, "Darn, that used to work so well whn she was younger." I hadn't even thought about it; they have no control over her at all once she turned 18.
