In fact a credit has been in place for a good couple of years now (hint: look down the left column on the corporate bs site), and I am only too happy to publish your comments to tell more of the story. Regards, Paul Hi Parkin,

It was created by my dear friend Wilson Rogers who died after a long battle with Leukemia at only 40-something. The idea came from a discussion we had one night about a small application I had written years earlier called Jive (the world's first true WORD processor). Wilson was a brilliant man and a treasure to have as a (fellow-geeky) friend. He is also the author of WRBBS - a Bulletin Board System that is still in use today! He developed and wrote it in GWBasic (originally) and later ported it to Delphi. Wilson used WRBBS to operate his own BBS for many, many years. I hope (respectfully request) that now you know a bit of the history, you will honor Wilson's memory by acknowledging him as the author of the original Business Spew.
