    Thanks for your patience as I get WhisperNet going again. A lot going on here and have had to put the network on hold for a bit. I appreciate all of you that have been patient.

    Everyone is certainly welcomed here. Please keep things going. Thank you so much.

    Unfortunately, some take it a way bit too serious. It is a hobby in a
    way for me, but also a means for my business and to meet new people. I
    enjoy BBSing a lot; all the way back in the late 80s. It's come a long
    way since 300 baud. I have a much better baud now. ;)

    I spend the minimum amount of time with the BBS, plus ham radio and
    square dance related stuff, with the computer. I don't spend every waking moment with them...or I risk burnout.

    I still remember the 300 baud logging onto CompuServe 40 years ago.

    I originally was using it for weather info. Then, I went to the forum
    pages, and one of the items was from the M100SIG (for the Radio Shack
    TRS-80 Model 100 laptop), where you could run a mini BBS on it!! I no
    longer have the computer, but still have the file over here with the
    programs named "SoftMail" and "Mini-Net". Those were the predecessor of
    The Thunderbolt BBS.

    I found myself using the "free pages" more often, just to kill time, as
    I originally was logged on at 300 baud with a Radio Shack TRS-80 MC-10
    Micro Color Computer...and it was dial-up internet.
