I was talking to someone the other day and can't remember the msg board we used before Yahoo and all the follow ons. I think it was something like RHMG or something close to that. VR

ah Usenet, the good ol' days where every man could be a navy SEAL and junior high marching bands proved how phalanxs could manuever. And if you got those two references kudos, now go tell the kids to get off your yard! |

And I seem to recall something called "Onelist" in between usenet and Yahoo… |

rgmh was on usenet, the internet news service. As I recall we turned our usenet server here off in the late 1990s. Usenet appeared around the same time as tcp/ip. Like tcp/ip, usenet is a distributed system, so hardened against nuclear attack:) along with r.g.m.h I used to have a lot of fun on soc.hist.wwii. |
