Great points Wayne.
From time to time, I'm struck by the notion of this BBS. A bunch of folks I've never met, and most likely never will, all hanging around this virtual community. Hearing of Warren being ill and Mark rallying the masses, Paul's pc on the fritz and CJFusco getting another book deal. Such as life in "Wayne's world" ( apologies - sometimes I can't help myself

) on any random day.
I first found this BBS in mid '99 but only lurked till later. I've seen many folks come and go. I remember the birth of Wayne's first child. Some guy named "old skul" and followed BB1 almost from the beginning. I guess what I saying is this place feels kinda like a home. Corny, I suppose.
Merry Christmas to all well wishes for the New Year!
