    Perhaps the Syrians learnt it from the Chasidim?

    squeak, you again are having difficulty discerning the humor 🙂

    I’m not such an interesting person.

    Is it just so you can find out what is fact and what is fiction?

    I had assumed none of it to be fiction.

    syrian, to be announced.

    suqeak, its not the only reason; in fact its not even a reason. your desire to oblige seemingly is lacking regardless?

    kapusta,

    Go to Google. In the search box type:

    site:theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom whatever you wanna search

    (Replace “whatever you wanna search” with whatever text or keywords you wanna search for.)

    Curious, do you feel approved now? 🙂 Its all above.

    Now will you reciprocate and your side accept?

    squeak, Prodigy came around in the early 90’s. Almost all USENET exchanges are archived by Google Groups. What shall I search for? I’d be very interested! 🙂

    squeak, the “net” rather.

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

    ICOT: Thanks.

    How’d you keep track of all that? i.e. its been a very long time since Matisyohu28 posted here!

    Btw, what is the other sn you referred to re: Bogen?

    squeak, you said you had email in the 70’s. May I ask which provider? Prodigy came later.

    Gopher and USENET where somewhat useful, I would say even in the ’80’s. What part of the new did you use pre-web?

    in reply to: WHY LABEL #631716
    Joseph
    Participant

    notpashut: “It’s not the label that’s divisive & destructive, it’s the way people use them.”

    The labels themselves breed it. It is its very nature.

    Another problem with labels is that they “kasher” tarfus. Someone says hey, I’m “left-wing” and my “left-wing gedolim” aren’t makpid about mixed swimming, tznius, etc. So you do yours, and let me do mine.

    Btw, when you have a chance ask about this issue to your Rav or someone of his stature and see what they think about it. It may be both surprising and illuminating to you.

    The proper thing is that a Rosh Yeshiva is just that. The ”Rosh” of the Yeshiva, and is the final arbiter.

    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.

    squeak – your just chicken to meet anyone you hadn’t met before. You’re probably afraid they’ll bite your head off. Where you always this way? c’mon, you can overcome… repeat… now don’t be so afraid; I promise, I do not bite. And I haven’t hired a hitman in over 10 years.

    Curious – don’t count it out. I’ve met folks from YW already; and don’t chicken out like squeak.

    gaw – what intrigues you about where TBO and CS are coming from, and how are they different (other than possibly living in EY)?

    squeak – what makes you confident that you know whether I am, or am not, a mod?

    squeak, your three bullet points in your last comment, if you think about it in depth, is more or less how the system currently works.
