I surely remember PC-Pursuit. I used it on my Opus BBS all the time. It was great that we had coders out there that wrote extensive batch files to get everything all connected. The one and only time I made it to the TI Fair in Chicago, I went representing PC-Pursuit. I begged them out of some money for a booth and got promotional material from them. Was a lot of fun and I got to meet so many people that I had "known" through Compuserver and various TI related BBSs.

WaZOO (Warp-zillion Opus-to-Opus) to make Fidonet more efficient. It included ZModem as the file transfer mechanism -- which brought the efficiency of Opus networking up to 98% - 100%. To establish the connection, I designed YooHoo and YooHoo/2U2 -- YooHoo. When a WaZOO system called another BBS, it said "YooHoo" by sending a special packet of data that could be recognized by another WaZOO system. But "YooHoo" would be ignored by an older Fidonet system. YooHoo/2U2. A WaZOO system that received a "YooHoo" packet sent a reply packet called "YooHoo/2U2".

I ended up running Opus. Loved the terminology! Wazoo file Transfer with the zedzap protocol!

Yes, Sioux Falls. You from Rapid or the hills?

No, I regret not archiving everything. Sorry.

Yes, I remember TI-ECHO because i created it! Dakota InfoNet BBS I became a fidonet node, then hub and the regional manager. Fun times and memories.
