History of the Fort
(repost of post from "Henry" <henery_r@yahoo.com>)
Ready for another history lesson Doc? This is when and where the Fort really
started. KH *always* used the username "nopubes". IE never existed, (nobody
used it) and everybody used Netscape 3. All attachments were posted using
XX-UU-encode.

Here's the fist time you see the use of the NP badge and notice there's no
"b":

And back when everyone was younger and had a wicked sense of humor:

first use of NP-b badge:

So, who is Dodgeboy? Read this, it'll tell you a lot:

Here. finally, from "Lookin" is a great rundown:

BTW, like I said, I was there, you weren't! I remember Beaux, and seeing as
it's history time, Dodegeboy's name came from the fact that in real life,
unlike Usenet, he owned a '69 Dodhe Charger, just like I did. To find me,
you have to follow the car! Dosgeboy also posted a picture of himself too,
and regretted that for the rest of his life.
Here's the "roll call" of all "badged" members:
