I tried to read about it on that BBS, but it was more than 80 miles from my house and I couldn't afford the long distance phone charges.

You obviously didn’t have a Novation Apple Cat modem that could wardial random 5 digit calling card codes for 3rd party long distance carriers.

I really hope there are a few other people here who know what that sentence means or I’m officially ancient :(

I almost feel younger people will not understand what you are referencing :) I was SysOp of FidoNet node.
