  • Queen City Power Outage

    From n2qfd@21:1/154 to All on Mon Aug 5 12:20:14 2024
    Hello all,

    Just posting a note that the Queen City BBS may see some sporadic outages in the next "few weeks," utility company's words. We're being upgraded to smart metering here and while it'll be a momentary power interruption they can't say when with any more specificity.

    So, this is you FYI note and best to all,

    Mal, Your BBS Name "Queen City" has made me curious enuf to look for Queen City in my Road Atlas on the New York State and New Jersey State pages.
    I know I could look your call up on QRZ but thought I'd ask You here.
    Please enlighten Me.

    Hey Ed,

    My Queen City is Elmira, NY.

    This comes from an old Rail Road designation as it was described in a travel journal as Queen of the cities on this line.

    Thank You, Mal.

    I only have been to New York State once (Cheektowoga near Buffalo) and not being from up there where You live I never heard of Your City being called The Queen City.
    Thanks again, Ed.
