I went to the site listed on page 1 in Cyberdog, I got a bunch of text. I wanted to see if the BBS would work from Cyberdog's built in telnet, but did not see any connection information. I noticed the text on the site started talking about the first setup in Northern Minnesota. I am a Minnesotan and it is nice to see someone on the forum who knows where that is.

I grew up in the Duluth area and now live west of the Twin Cities. Where are you at?

@wove - I once had a job in Minnesota (Twin Cities) - and nearly froze my crown jewels off up there.  One Winter the door of my car had frozen up rock solid, no joke. It got glued to the frame by ice!

Duluth is one fine town. I live down in St. Peter. Minnesota did have some good bbs back in the day. Mankato had a huge one that was very popular, but you had to pay to join. I use to call into one in St. Cloud, which catered to about everyone using anything that could reach it. Alexandria had a fine one as well, but it catered more to Ataris and Amigas and had lots and lots of music files for those machine. I always used the communications module of ClarisWorks to connect. Being from Minnesota you can no doubt relate to the attitude that, "I spent perfectly good money for a telecom application and I will be damned if I I buy another." @68040 In Minnesota days where the car doors are froze shut are known as Wednesday. I grew up in North Dakota where we would say, "Yes the climate will freeze off the Crown Jewels. It helps to keep out the Riff-raff.

@wove - I once spend a Winter in Fargo, upon my return from Canada. And one morning I got out of the motel and the engine block of my truck had frozen solid - all the oil had solidified. That's when I found out what those power outlets are used for that I saw on the outside facing the parking lot. And I had thought those were meant for barbecuing during summer night parties.

We had a bunch of BBS's in Duluth including The Grotto, Uncle Dudley's Fun Farm (which my friend crashed), The Vault, and several others I can't remember... Quote from: wove I always used the communications module of ClarisWorks to connect.

I've never tried to BBS through ClarisWorks. Does it support ANSI emulation?
