Wayne was the author of the WWIV BBS software.

Back in 96-98 I ran a WWIV BBS in the St. Louis MO area.  Good times.

I remember paying Wayne the $80 to register the software.

If anyone has any leads on how to contact him, please let me know.
I'd like to tell him thank you.

him for his work so long ago.

Just to clarify that video is from August 2002... It would be
interesting to see how he is doing so many years later

they are together because the 2 videos are combined.
