Anyone here have any idea how long the old forum was in operation? I remember back when it was a "professional forum" under CompuServe and cost extra to be a member, added to your CompuServe membership and charged to your credit card monthly. It was owned by the "Forum Administator" who could actually make money from the project. Had to know DOS commands then in order to navigate through the forum. Perhaps as far back as 1980 or so. Wasn't exactly DOS commands, but was ASCII such as you would have to type "Go Military" to get to the forum and then something like "REA NEW" to get the new messages since your last log on. All at 300 baud, unless you wanted to pay more for 1200 BPS. Jim Horn was sysop back then. -Don-
