 NB>> Just discovered that I hadn't replied to this... been a crazy
 NB>> month, that Real Life stuff didn't let up much... and somehow I
 NB>> managed to only save this message but not mark it for answering
 NB>> later.... oh, well.. I'm back now... 

 RF> Glad to see you!

Thanks...  :)

 NB>> Someday I might stop by and check things out... How many different
 NB>> boards are you running, then....?  I've noticed you showing up in a
 NB>> number of different forums....  ;)

 RF> Let's see: Wildcat, Mystic (my main and feeds the following bbs's)
 RF> EzyCom, GAP. VADV.  Also have a WWIV Board.

I've seen you show up occasionally on the WWIV board I check...  IIRC,
you were a user (as I was) of Frank Vest's board, before he took it down
some years ago... what were you running as your board back then...?  I
think I remember him running Synch... or was it Wildcat...?

 RF> You can telnet to each of them individally or connect to my Gamesrv at
 RF> rdfig.net and you can see all the boards available and connect to them
 RF> and you will also see by TradeWars Server there also.

Dunno... I think I'd probably just pick one... I'm more a messages
person than a game-player...  Except for Scrabble and KOTB...  ;)

 RF> Oh, just for info, my daughter graduated last week from High School,
 RF> and my grandson did this weekend.  He's six month older than she is! 
 RF> But she rags on him now that she graduated first.  And he refuses since
 RF> the day he knew what an aunt was to call her Aunt Sarah.  That's my
 RF> grandson, stubborn like his dad and grandfather.

When they're of an age, it's hard to maintain the distinction,
anyhow.... ;)  My son is only about a decade younger than his youngest
aunt and uncle (my two youngest siblings), and always seemed to treat
them more as siblings than as next generation up...  About 9 years
younger than my brother, and about 12 years younger than my sister...

 RF> Attending two graduations was timeconsuming but welcomed.

It's an important milestone... :)  Congratulations to the both of them
(and to the families, as well)...  :)
