Here's more proof that I was the sysop (pronounced "
") {
short for "system operator"} of a dial-up BBS from 07-21-89 through 07-21-99.
This is my name tag used during the Western Lights Convergence 1992 when Searchlight BBS Software had a significant upgrade.
I was operating my BBS with Searchlight BBS software when this gathering was held.
Western Lights was held in mid-November 1992; I remember getting a ride from my now-deceased best friend Paul Casey to the event (it was significantly south of downtown Seattle where I lived at the time) -- Paul also ran Searchlight BBS software on his own BBS at the time.
