I was 14 years old (in 1994) when I started my first BBS.  At the time, I was talking to a friend of mine about computer stuff and I said I had started running a BBS.  He said he didn't know what a BBS was.  I was a little surprised.

That's cool.  My mom isn't big into computers but knows the basics of using a computer.  My dad was always into computers though and is familiar with what a BBS is.
