I recall those handles, sinkspur more, but not their antics. Since were bribing up screen names, I do recall Willie Green (train dude if memory serves me correctly) and Chet99 (pit bull defender extraordinaire). Those threads always got fun.
And of course the “Great Flame Wars of Free Republic” of years past (GWB years) that would have half the board banned today overnight today.
/good times.
Chet99 was anything but a pitbull defender.
