Description
A dial-up bulletin board run from Rockport Springs by its sysop, Maeve Castellanos, with message bases, a file library and 567 members.
Provenance
Deposited by Red River Libraries in 2016. The disks had been stored beside a loudspeaker, and one track on each was weak. Most of the work survives, but some files are lost. The damage map lists them.
