This was YOU??!!??
This is an absolutely amazing resource, especially for me, a guy of that age. I love going through the old CD-ROMs to see what treasures were put out there in the pre-Internet world.
For those not in the know, these CD-ROMs were what is now the Internet, but at the time modems were so slow, it was actually faster ti buy (or trade) CD-ROMs than to download the information they contained. Yes, for many people the postal service had higher throughput than computer networks.
Thank you so much for providing this amazing tool and preserving a piece of history in a way that is accessible to everyone.
