"Contact intelligent life" is the slogan of this board, and it seems to be true. There is a varied and interesting user group here. Many come for the adult access areas, which are rather friendly since so many people know each other. Others drop by for the forum discussions, extensive chat facilities, the MUD, and access to the Net. The monthly calendar mentions football games against other BBSs, karaoke nights at a local bar, trivia contexts, birthdays and more. The sysops work hard here to provide a welcoming place. - E.L.
