@mozz I love that documentary! Hadn't seen this obituary before, though. :) · 2 years ago

@lykso Thanks! i found this through Jason Scott's BBS documentary. I highly recommend checking it out it if you're into in this kind of stuff. In particular the episode on FidoNet, I had not idea how widespread that network was in the 90s. · 2 years ago

Did some Internet sleuthing, and was happy to find that Thom Henderson seems alive and well. He wasn't too hard to find, though he wasn't especially easy either. I figure he values his privacy, so I'll leave it to y'all to go looking if you want to find him yourselves. · 2 years ago
