One clarification, though. He says:
>BBSs were all text all the time — no graphics, no icons, or avatars to go along with your posts and musings.
In fact ANSI art was huge on BBS's back in the day. ACiD, UAA and a variety of other groups all created spectacular "graphics" that virtually every BBS (especially "elite" boards) featured on their splash page.
