    Thanks Rob, that was nice. As you prob know, I run a copy of GAP dedicated to Kenny. We were working on a new version when he died. GAP was great software, and I was proud to run it for years as a beta tester. Again, thanks for the Memorial.

    Not sure if you all have seen that, I should have thought to post that link to DoveNet.

    you can still use it, it's not lost.
    i uploaded bbstermbox to vert and you can get it from there.

    actually the terminal program that came with my old modem was awesome.
    well i thought it was awesome.
