the suburban lair and the subwolf story
imagine living in a town of 68,000 people and not knowing anybody else
who does what you do. then imagine that you seem distant from
everyone else and have been exposed to information and ideas that
others do not.
not sure if the BBS (bulletin board systems) came first or if we met
through working at the council at the time. either way, we were geeks
- the nerds that fixed stuff. experimenters. this photo on this
entry is from a train track in roswell, new mexico when rob lived
there for a time in 2006. Rob ran the 'suburban lair' and i ran 'fundemental' - we were the only
two people in the whole of our town to run bulletin board systems. in
fact most of the time i think most of the sysop chat was between rob
and myself on each others boards as we went digging around in each
others 'computers' for stuff. i've known 'subwolf' for over a decade
and in that time lots of things have happened and have changed. I'm
hoping that rob will find some time to put keyboard skills to digital
paper and write some of his own digital memoirs and memories over
here. I'm sure he has loads.
