Description
A dial-up bulletin board run from East Whiteport by its sysop, Amara Silva, with message bases, a file library and 118 members.
Provenance
Recovered from a hosting company’s retired backup tapes, with the owner’s permission. 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.
