    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to ED VANCE on Saturday, November 17, 2018 19:59:22
    Howdy! ALL!,
    Here in the United States we observe Thanksgiving Day in November,
    so I thought I would say "THANK YOU!" to the people who Run, Read and
    Enter messages on BBS's.

    You're welcome, and thank you.

    In the 30+ Years I've used BBS's ran on Commodore, Apple ][,
    PC Compatiable and Other computers, I have learned a lot from Reading,
    Making Comments, Asking Questions and also seeing what Others write about
    in BBS Echo Conferences about various topics they know about or want to
    know (more) about.
    Mostly about how to use my computer(s) to make my life easier.
    THANKS for the many HINTS and SHORTCUTS about how to use my computer(s)
    to make life easier here.

    If you want to know tips on how to use your kitchen
    equipment to make life easier (or have any pointers
    on how to do so), please pop back in here and start
    a new thread.

    And THANKS! for all of the GOOD non-computer IDEAS I've found in other
    Echo's that I read, such as: Amateur Radio, Bible, Doctor Who, Space, etc.

    I enjoy being able to learn and share what I read in BBS Messages.
    THANKS!
