GEnie

Did anyone here use the good old General Electric Network for Information Exchange (GENIE) back when it was one of the big providers? Just curious.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Yes, yes I did and I know that Babylon 5 grid thingy.

 

[jgbrowning]

I didn't. But I love your new avatar.

What Babylon 5 grid thingy?

I was in the Justice League GEnie thread of the Comics Roundtable with J Michael Straczynski and Keith R. R. DeCandido and a bunch of other cool people that I really only knew by their character names, like Slow On The Uptake Lad and Ultra Tight Miniskirt Lass, and it suddenly occurred to me the other day that some of those people might be here, too - similar interests and such.

Thanks. It is an intelligent item, and it provides superior fire protection to what my old gauntlet did.

Babylon 5 locations in space by grid was related to its GEine address.

Yup. I was on it. I mostly was in Scorpia's game forum.

Never been on Genie. I've been on a few boards on AOL in addition to a few internet boards.


Torm- got burnt too many times grabbing stuff with only a METAL gauntlet on? For shame!
