Dan,
And passing the RJ-11 cable back and forth across the desk to do it!Wow! But I remember those days too. Everything technical was fresh and exciting. It made sense to do geeky stuff. Ah, those were the days. ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
