 CS> Well, I have time now and will for the next 2 months though my

NB> You're getting short.  :)  So you'll be busy packing things for the

Suitcase for a bit yes, but not as long as it sounds.  We have stuff in
Virginia Beach stored, enough to get by on.  Mostly stuff we would have
yard-saled but kept as backup basics for return.  2 sofas (one is a fold out
sleeper), some cheap wood chairs, 2-3 cheap barstools (we have a bar in the
livingroom that can double as a dining table), a queensized bed frame and we
think the matress (was garbage with springs poking us but will do in a pinch),
lots of non-microwavable plates and should be a mix of cookware including my
cast iron pans.

I will not have any 'silverware' but one more set added to the grunch won't
hurt. Flatware for 4 will work for the interum.

 CS> You know Shannon is planned to shut down right?  Thats the 1:275/311

NB> Yes.  I was pleasantly surprised to find out that he had set things ba

Ok!  Shannon got a job offer in Norfolk and might be staying.  He wasant sure
last he typoed to us but that was about a week ago.

NB> Holodeck was one of my very first bbs homes... back in the days of
NB> dialup (and 2400 modems... <G>).  He went down permanently shortly
NB> before Y2K... and then, like any good bbs addict, gave in and put the
NB> bbs back up a few years ago.  He's generally been rather stable, so I

NB> possibly family stuff, as I know his father's been ill lately.

Do you know the name of the sysop?  I generally know the names of the sysops
and not the name of the BBS.  I might know what is up.
