IMHO, there was nothing "good old things" about gopher, uucp, etc. I used gopher, wais, uucp ,etc and am glad they are relics of the past, personally speaking.
For me, there is nothing nostalgic about those old applications. The "Modern Junk" as you call it, is much, much better, in my opinion.
Yow, cool! What's about WAIS? Are there still any WAIS servers on the Net today? When speaking of what is junk and what's not, it is of course a personal position of each, for me better are old-style real things like ed, for example, email, uucp, you know, such things, and all of that in command line. If i had a real COM terminal, it would be great! The problem is that seems not to be any of them today any more. By the way, what do you think of z39.50? Is a pretty thing, huh?
