   It was the software that Phil Becker described as a bread board system.   
   Obviously he took it from the hardware usage but he wanted to reflect   
   the fact that one could build up TBBS in the same way. And one could! It   
   was lovely to work with. One could make a TBBS system look totally   
   different to anyone else's.
