     @frankenspock This morning I was musing that every time I see a license plate that starts with 7E0 or 8N1 I wonder if it's a BBS reference.

     @frankenspock In this age of phones with built-in address books I can't always recall my own phone number, but still know Rat Head's number.

     @smscotten Wunnerful. When was the area code changeover, btw? I'm thinking 92 or 93.

     @frankenspock I'm thinking more like '91 but it was probably phased in over a few years.

     @smscotten That ASCII illustration is one of my favorites, ever, in the whole universe.
