Yeah..  I was surprised he also said he thought about 90% of BBSes had disappeared in 1993, which seems pretty early to me.  The BBS scene was still fairly big here, I think until about 1997 or so when I noticed users started to dwindle fairly fast.  I didn't even know about the internet in 1993, and I'm not entirely sure how many people did.
