Yeah, that brings back a lot of memories. I recognize your name, but
can't place it. I honestly don't remember an 'adit' node at all. The
'Home' node was Scott, my uncle. And it sounds like him being the last
one. He never knew when to stop. I also remember a tesseract node, that
wouldn't fit the 8 letter limit, so they had to spell it wrong. The only
other nodes I can remember off the top of my head are 'snoopy' and
'tattoou'. When the owner of snoopy's place went offline, I was able to
get his license, and Scott (StG) was kind enough to let me convert
'snoopy' into 'wormfood', so it didn't cost me anything :) The 'tattoou'
node was run by Mike Ortloff (Boobie), and we used to chat all the time,
which is why I remember that. I was always impressed with the StG
network, for what it was doing, and the hardware it was doing it on.
