My BBS was up from about 1991 to 1995 or so. I still have all of my data. It lasted until I graduated high school, which was at about the same time that I got a dail-up shell account from a friend, which allowed me to directly access the In

Ah, I'm glad to see this make it to HN. I first learned of Emperor Norton sometime back in the 00's when I was listening to music by Emperor Norton Records. I looked them up, and learned about Emperor Norton himself in the process
