No. I've been on the scene since Totse's conception, when it was called &Temple of the Screaming Electron. I found the ad for the BBS on the inside of the back page of a popular anarchist magazine of the day, and I dialed right in. This was a totally different world than today. No Web, no search engines, no web browsers, all you had was TelNet and a modem that took an hour to download a 10kb text file. It was like sailing at night. Peering around the world in cybersapce by only the light of the Moon and the reflection off the waters ahead.

That is nothing like it at all. This is more like it.

No one ever believed me when I said this day would come.

anarchist magazine? wtf.. I was given a magazine quarterly at Babbages Computer Store at Sunvalley Mall back in the early 90s. the dude knew right off what I was trying to do. I saw a story on the news about free chat sites (which it seemed only totse, locally had multi nodes) so I wouldn't have to pay for comp-u-serve (it was like AOL but better)

The magazine I was given looked like one of those old Radio Shack dot matrix like print?

I don't remember how I came about finding it (and I may have it backed up somewhere) but found a pdf file of the magazine with totse printed on it. I may of found it at archive.org that someone pdf scanned the magazine. if I come across it ill upload it here.

I believe my first computer probably had a 2400bps even though it was 10 year old technology. but the time the 56k was coming out was I believe when we first got broadband in our town. first DSL at 1-2megbits then came Cable at 20 (which was a bid deal)

but that was about all I remember.. too much strain between being sick with a liver problem to that of having kids to look out for

I have never been able to stay awake all day since I got mono and a liver infection that followed. and now I read it may not of been Mono, because somehow the Mono and Lime Disease test are similar and I was bitten by a tick and fell ill not long afterwards.

The first phone frequency to be hacked was accomplished through the use of a toy whistle that used to come in a box of Capt'n Crunch breakfast cereal. 2600 hertz. True story.
