[Husker] don't fall for it

[David Elfering]

Lol. The deluxe thing was getting two phone lines. Now my cell phone
goes faster.

The list was like finding some kind of support group as I lived out of
state and the only news came from occasional AP stories and the
Huskers Illustrated magazine.

At one point I found out about a fax service at the University which
if you sent it certain codes would fax you team and player stats.

I prefer the list to the fanboy mania that tends to overwhelm the web
site bulletin boards.

Either way I've been grateful for all the years of service Mike has
given us. Years ago I even recall him hosting list get togethers at
his house! Talk about dedicated!

I don't recall when I joined the Husker list, but I don't think it was too much after I got the internet at home, on my screamin' 28.8 dial-up modem connection :)  "Honey, get off the internet, I wanna make a phone call" was heard commonly in our house back then.  My, how times change :)
