I recall using telnet to gain access to other networks.
Had friends big time into phreaking.
I remember a phreaking BBS in Colorado that people would use illegal 800s numbers to connect to.

I even remember my first email outside of CompuServe.
I designed a pilot's logbook using Filemaker and a guy from the Mayo Clinic contact me.

When I had a 2400 baud modem, I was rocking!
When I looked for an apartment I had to make sure there was a local CIS node.

Yeah I was happy when the 2400 baud modems came out. We used to download games from the BBS's.

My friend was using long distance phone cards and making up account numbers to connect to BBS's and networks in other states to download games illegally. One day when he got home he had two FBI agents waiting outside his house. They left the computer but took all his disks and the cables to his computer. He had to pay back the calling card company about 10k....
