See, what did I tell ya? "Mike S" is not an original name. ;-) (you missed out on a good game though) The whole nick thing is a problem; I was a totally different person on Usenet back then too. ;-) Actually, one of the problems I have tracking down my older posts is that I went through so many nyms and NNTP hosts that I've forgotten most of them. My recent perusal of old usenet postings revealed -somewhat to my surprise- that I posted a lot less on csipg.ACTION than I thought. I always considered this my 'home base', but it turns out I was a lot more diverse; .RPG was a favorite, but so too .ADVENTURE, .FLIGHT-SIM and .STRATEGIC (.SPORTS could DIAF though ;-). But .Action got minimal attention. Anyway, I'll stop stalking you now, Mike S. (or whoever you are ;-). It was just an excuse for me to go through old postings anyway)
