General Shmooze

moish, sounds like today wasn’t the best of days…

Not asking, fair?

Good night, moish, hope tomorrow’s a better day for you

moish01: g’ night!!! have a better day tomorrow!!! come visit us in the cr!!!

just read through the whole thread… raise your hand if you think you know who i am… not all the details are accurate but still… i gotta figure this out… i might have to disappear :{

brooklyn19: please do not join the cr’s witness protection program!!! just play along with what everyone says!!!!

Joseph: it won’t be the same around here!!! don’t incoraege here to join the cr witness protection program!!!

lol joseph I said ur in ur forties, you can’t be 70 cuz then u wouldn’t know so much about computers.

And brooklyn ya pretty much everyone knows who u r. but it’s ok put your screen name on your shidduch resume see what happens

Why can’t someone in their 70s know about computers? I had an email address before you (or even Joseph, according to what he admits) was born. I used the internet before there was such a thing as the world wide web. I had a personal computer within a few years of the first one ever. I ran extensive programs on a computer the size of a building (from a mainframe terminal, ever heard of one?). I daresay I know a lot more about computers, programming, networks, and hardware than many or most people younger than me.

Your stereotype may be correct in general, but you can’t apply it on an individual level.

hey moish tell her we miss her n she should definately stick around!!

ok ok squeak you got me. !!! 🙂 lol ur in ur seventies? get out seriously?

squeak – if you had email in the 70’s, then your email was either a proprietary system (i.e. MCIMail, CompuServe, etc.) or ARPANet – which until the early 80’s (when it became the Internet) was limited to the military and its contractors (i.e. certain university’s). If you used the net pre-web (i.e. ’91), you must be referring to e-mail, Gopher, FTP, telnet, etc. And until the very late 80’s (when commercialization began), was limited to university’s, government and the military.

Moish, my source at Shaare Torah is confirming.

Joseph: And your point is?

Yes, I used telnet straight up until we got Prodigy. The internet wasn’t worth much in those days (mostly just used to share dinosaur “pictures” between universities) but we did use it. It may not have been a hot item in those days (nor was it user-friendly) but now that it is the big ticket, the old-timers can lay claim to “been there done that”. And I still have my first email address – though I could be pursuaded to sell it on eBay.

squeak, the “net” rather.

Used telnet for what purpose? just e-mail (i.e. pine)?

Actually, I don’t know. Prodigy was the first provider I ever used at home (and not until the 90’s). My email was through the college. As I mentioned off-hand a good while back, I was an active participant in many USENET exchanges. Some of those old threads are still floating around the internet now! Just don’t look for the name squeak – we used our email addresses.
