Around the same time, middle school I think, I was in the SF Public library playing MUD on the little terminal they reserved for searching books. We couldn't afford a computer, or internet, at home. The librarians tolerated us.

Eventually led to me learning C and running my own ROM MUD. I remember sending some random person $5 or $10 and they hosted my MUD on their server.

I too owe MUD everything.
