I got my start on the Fourth Dimension in St. Louis (532-4652... I still remember it!), a Networks II BBS, in 1983. I miss it.
My ex-husband and I ran The Junk Drawer, a pretty popular TRS-80 BBS running the spectacular and under-utilized MTABBS software. When we moved to Oregon, we handed it off to our friend Marlin, and he ran it for years, until the hardware finally gave out.
By the time the IBM PC guys got into the game, BBSing just wasn't as interesting anymore.
