Hmmm, Tyrell in 1991? How? The Internet was made open to the "public"
in 1992. Before that, it was just for education, the military, and the
US Government.
I started with Tyrell in 1992, when it first came out, I think. It was
still just a RoboBBS (I think that was the BBS brand name.) Eventually
they moved from a "door" to a full-blown SunOS.
Before that, in 1991, I could only hook up to the 'net via SMSU, in
Springfield, MO.
Does anyone know what happened to Tyrell regarding the Attorney General
of Missouri? Yes, I was one of those overbilled people. Later, I was
one of those automatically resubscribed people, even though I told them
not to do so way in advance.

Okay - so more accurately - 15 or so years of using the net,
and 6-8 years of connecting through ISPs. Who remembers, off
the top of their head - without looking it up - when Tyrell
started? I say '93, but it could have been as early as '92
or as late as '94.
