Re: BBS: The Documentary

Is anyone planning on ordering this? This would make for great Friday
night viewing - I could even supply a projector and dvd player for it if
anyone's interested in setting something like this up.

"Back in the day" I had my list of about 5 or 6 BBS's I'd call every
afternoon after school and take my turns on the various games -
Planets:TEOS was my favorite.
