Ed,

 EV> I never used ICQ or USENET (I think they are similar?).

  I never used USENET, but was on ICQ for awhile.

 EV> I don't think ICQ is something CBM created or offered, was it?

  That, I don't know.

 EV> I called it once or maybe twice to try it out but I wasn't interested
 EV> in getting a paid account on it, or AOL for that matter.

  I was with CompuServe for years...no telling how much money I spent on
that.

 EV> I like QWK because I'm in my own little world when I'm Reading,
 EV> Writing or Writing a Reply.

  Same here. That way, the online meter isn't running...and I can reply
at my leisure.

 EV> I read/lurk many Echos on this BBS, I just jump in and out at times.

  The only BBS I use is mine...mainly for a lack of time...because there
are other things in life that are more important than a BBS...although
some would consider that "heresy" <G>.
