Just for the hell of it I googled the club I hung out with in
the late 1970's or early 1980's, NECS. According to one reference
(Springfield Mass. Library) their website was
www.necs.org, which
is now owned by one of those horrid 'buy this site' parasites.
I can't even remember anyone's name! What a shame. Used to meet
out near 128, meet then go to some local late-night restaurant.
The club ran a BBS, ("NECS"...), how I got in touch with them
in the first place.
