Kinda reminds me of Ryan Seacrest getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

No, I didn't make any of the GEnie events, though I did make a couple of CompuServe Travel Forum events in D.C. and NYC. On GEnie iI was present on the travel and scuba diving fora. I distinguished myself with a typo everyone picked up on, seemingly, when I used the word "tarvel" several times. And yes, Aladdin was super - let it do the heavy lifting at night, next day what you wanted was there to look over and reply to - very useful in the days of slow connections.
GEnie folks! It's a small world!

Their Aladdin software would sure have been nice for FT

JDIVER, you are certainly welcome!
I've learned so much from FT. Working toward my million AA miles, I got depressed on the subject. JDiver pulled me out of my funk. I made my million and am moving ahead to a 2nd. When I joined FT I would not have believed it at all possible.
Thanks to all you helped along the way!
