The AOL boards were the Wild West, with a lot of know-it-alls, who were decidedly lacking in factual knowledge, but making up for it in sheer bluster. When the Forum started, a lot of AOLers migrated, but didn’t realize there was a Sheriff, who was big on law and order. Oops! See ya!

I think I came in from the TRainNet forum on CompuServe. It was definitely tame there. Gary Moreau even came on there occasionally and chatted. I believe there are still a few of us here on OGR. We used to do a "meet at the fry stand" at York.

I have to echo Derek's praise of the staff of OGR for keeping this the place to be. Also the membership. Nowhere is there a bigger knowledge base and a group of folks that are willing to help.
