It started as a humble BBS, offering Email and Usenet News and grew to a large scale provider.
I started at APK just as it moved out of the basement of the founder's house and into it's corporate offices in downtown Cleveland.

It was hectic, even chaotic, at times, but the experience and knowledge I gained from there is invaluable. From December 1995 to March 1998 (2 years 4 months)
