Thanks Jouni for all the effort you put into MBnet. Long time no see.

I guess everyone has a few key moments in their life that shape their future, in the sense that a different decision at that point would have resulted in a very different life. For me one of those moments was the night I decided to try out the BBS of the magazine I had been reading since it was launched. Quite soon after that I spent my daily hour of precious MBnet time chatting with my new friends (always between 9-10pm, to guarantee that everyone is there), only using the rest of the BBS to exchange the QWK packets, and the weekends meeting the same bunch of people. I still regularly keep in touch with a few of those and was even married to one for years.

For you it must have been still more extreme. So, my question to you is: Have you ever thought how your life would have turned out if you had said no to the offer in 1995? Your career and personal life must have been deeply affected by the years you spent there, especially as you were still very young that time, but do you think that you would have ended roughly where you are if not for MB/MBnet?
