Okay, so looks like you'd go into Region 17, Net 138.

Here are the RC and NC lines from the current nodelist for them:

Region,17,North_West,AB_AK_BC_ID_MT_OR_NWT_SK_WA_YT,Dallas_Hinton,-Unpublished-,300,CM,MO,INA:bandmaster.ddnsfree.com,IBN

Host,138,Rainer_Net,Pierce_County+_WA,Gene_Buckle,-Unpublished-,300,CM,XX,IBN:bbs.retroarchive.org,IFT,ITN

So I'd suggest trying a netmail to Gene Buckle there, or perhaps log in 
to that BBS and leave him a local message or something.  Good luck.
