Is area 4 connected to hecnet at the moment? From here it doesn?t look like it.

I couldn't hit it, either and I was curious as to what Lifecycle was.

Good morning! Just to update ? that is not me, I was behind the camera, but good investigation to find the video. That was at DEC Legacy 2010, I was looking for a page I had written about the games, but I haven?t come up trumps yet. The source code for Lightcycle is a combination of FORTRAN and VAX Pascal.
