Yep, Antimatter is most definately still up (see my tagline).  I get zero
local callers, and get a few long distance per week that saw my sig in a
post or email calling to check it out. :)  Futurenet is most definately
still running.  As far as I can tell, There's probably about 6 to 10 BBS's
still on the network.  Space Bar and Antimatter are the two main hubs. 
There's 3 BBSes left that net with Antimatter on a regular basis, and 2
others that net in once in a blue moon.  Tony's been having major problems
trying to net in for internet mail though, so the internet stuff mostly
only works if you connect to antimatter, and then only when I can keep the
gateway from jamming up (mal-formed bounce notices generated by a certain
FV site which shall remain nameless).

Antimatter is still booting from the drive I bought from you. :)  It isn't
running from it anymore...  too much of the drive is corrupted.  There's
enough left to boot from and that's about it.  Most of Antimatter is
running from a Zip drive. :)
