"This was a classic BBS that housed most major message nets and had probably one of the strongest user bases ever within the 860 area code. It's still up periodically for nostalgia at Telnet://ThrashInc.TZO.Com and/or Telnet://ThrashInc.D2G.Com and it runs with all the original bells and whistles. This was a CLASSIC BBS indeed!" - Thrash

Scott Lahman
"I ran this BBS from my bedroom. On a dual floppy Franklin Ace 1000 computer. Timeframe was probably 1982-1984 though I can't completely remember. I focused on video games. Probably fewer than 50 members and less than 5 paid. Not a great board but I did wind up with a career in video games." - Scott Lahman
