I dont think you ever were dialed into totse. the cost would of been to much as a long distance call for you. It was local to me until they moved the line from local to toll about 2-3 years after I joined. I was really pissed off because I would spend an hour or two at a time playing the mob hit game and trying to figure out LORD and posting to local people then hearing my then Wife bitch at me about how much the phone bill suddenly became. she thought I was having an affair with someone in Walnut Creek. -

There was no cost at all. This was before they even caught on to charging. You could dial in and stay on indefinitely, and no long distance charges. Then they started charging, so the phreaking era began. We phreaked the fuckers right and left. They didn't know if they was coming or going. -

fire killed bacteria and virus in food, it tasted better too, then they discovered while bored at a campfire that melting that odd rust colored clay made it really fucking hard. so they learned to make tiles for roofs and then realized what iron was in the clay and realized by separating it from the clay would melt into something harder. and they learned to smelt tools and weapons. the lineage of fire thousands of years later would create the hydrogen bomb by the concept of learning. and learning other metals or observing gas and liquids created science and the periodic table of element. -

I suppose there wasnt a whole lot to do back then for entertainment, so you're probably right. Some guy was just so bored that he decided to just rub sticks together for no reason but to keep himself occupied. -

In prehistoric times, they'd watch the fire and the flickering flames like we'd watch a show on television today. The whole family. Prehistoric family television. -
