Known to many in northwest US fandom since 1980 as a regular volunteer of his man management and organizing skills, Kahboi (pronounced Cowboy in English) has for many years been the Editor for the H.R. McMillan Planetarium's affiliated space and astronomy educational BBS "SpaceBase(tm)" At the peak of Fidonet's success, the results of Dan's editing effort were reaching out to over 5,000 amateur BBS's world wide weekly and a readership estimated in the tens of thousands.
Dan has also witnessed space launches as an accredited journalist representing SpaceBase (including the US Space Shuttle) and on his annual holidays he can be found prowling the aerospace bone yards of the Arizona desert studying American aerospace history (but they still won't let him into the B-52 that dropped the X-15). Currently he is working on converting SpaceBase and it's gig's of space science news data from a BBS system to an internet based archive with an internet e-mail distribution system.
