    You worked at Prodigy? Growing up, our very 1st "online" experience was with Prodigy. I didn't find the local BBS's until POP3 WWW browsing became a thing. Our local ISP ran the BBS...I digress. Pretty cool though that you worked at Prodigy.

    What did you do there?

    What BBS did you help run in Salt Lake City?
    I used to keep a Salt Lake are BBS list that I uploaded to allot of BBS's in the SLC area.
    I ran the Outwest BBS from early 90's to 97 running PCBoard.
