• Great quote #2

    I saw this by Robert Frost, and couldn't help but think he would have abeen a bbs fan.

    "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." –Robert Frost

    Most people pass on by, taking the easy, quick route.

    Those that stop at a bbs, at least find it an interesting diversion.

    Most find bbs's are filled with people of the same ilk.

    Makes me think of a quote from Jesus,

    Matthew 7:13, 14 Go in through the narrow gate, because broad is the gate and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are going in through it; 14 whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are finding it.

    But I have waxed poetic enough for now. ;)

    So, Salvation through BBSing?

    I just heard something about this quote last night. Was interesting to look into it a bit. Wikipedia has a brief analysis, there were others I came
    across but didn't bookmark them:
