Between 1987 and ‘89, FidoNet Echomail routed through a four-node hub system in Dallas, Texas. I was part of that hub, along with Jon, Wynn, and Chuck.

Hardwired was Jon Sabol’s BBS.

Night City was Chuck Lawson’s BBS.

Pink World was my BBS.

Wynn Wagner, author of Opus-CBCS, ran The POLE. It was an invite-only board with an unlisted number.

This is the animated welcome screen I used for a while on Pink World BBS.
