B.B.N. BBS
==========

"B.B.N. BBS stands for the name of the private school, 'Buckingham
Browne and Nichols'; it was *NOT* affiliated with the famous
computer company of B.B.N., 'Bolt Baranek and Newman'. One of the
first school affiliated BBSes, B.B.N. BBS was heavily into the
Fantasy Role Playing Game, "Dungeons And Dragons". There were text
files on dungeon mastering, creating characters, creating
interesting traps for dungeons, and much more. B.B.N BBS was also
the first BBS in the area to carry the text file, "Requiem For A
Sysop". The appearance of this text file is considered by some to
officially mark the end of the "First Wave" of BBSing. (The
"Second Wave" is said to have begun with the advent of Tom Mack's
text file, "The Second Ring", the advent of the IBM PC, and the
popularization of Ward Christensen's RBBS.)" - Winston Smith
