I wonder if my CompuServe email is still active?

I loved Compuserve. Online discussions, hobbies etc, Access to different Databases like Lexis-Nexis, BBS, 300 baud modems. Those were the days

I remember showing my wife Compuserve on a 300 baud phone modem. I excitedly pointed out to her that Sears was offering products to sell. Her response was that no woman would ever want to buy from a list. She said they wanted to go to the store to see and touch before they bought anything. I’ve since been trying (unsuccessfully) to find a way to suggest she may have been somewhat less than correct.
