I remember Usenet pre- and post- AOL. No forgiveness or forgetness.
- jj999 3y agoIf AOL didn't exist, something else would have killed this fragile defense-less network.
- OldGuyInTheClub 3y agoAh, but then I would have hated that thing, instead.
- itsboring 3y agoAn appropriate comment in this, the month of September.
- OldGuyInTheClub 3y agoIt is _always_ September after AOL. Eternally even. ;-)
- jandrese 3y agoAOL's Usenet client was a terrible hack too. It barely worked. They also tried really hard to filter out the porn and warez which was ultimately futile.

- acheron 3y agoMe too!
