Lover of Atari, BBSes and retro tech. I'm the amateur historian behind the "Break Into Chat" wiki and blog. In my professional life, I'm a journalist at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Break Into Chat: https://breakintochat.com/blog/ Guardian of Forever BBS: https://guardian.synchro.net
Sad news: "Dry Bones" cartoonist Yaakov Kirschen has died. https://www.jns.org/dry-bones-cartoonist-yaakov-kirschen-dies-at-87/ I first encountered Kirschen through his "Mom and Me" and "Murray and Me" graphical chatbot programs (received from my uncle Jim when he handed down his Atari ST to us in the late 1980s). Kirschen's work on "Mom" and "Murray" was profiled in-depth by the NYT, LAT, and others. (1/x) #atarist #atari #retrocomputing #kirschen #drybones #jewish #vintagecomputing #obituaries image
