Lauren's comments about people is right on. "Backbone" sites were
usually the result of a specific person at a site where he/she had
fairly extensive control over a machine with sufficient capacity to
handle news and mail load, and where he actively pursued
connectivity.

A list of machine/individuals is perhaps worth note (and nostalgia).
I'll start it with what I remember:

Machine Person Login
Rick Adams seismo seismo!rick (later uunet)
Larry Auton clyde clyde!lda
Fred Avolio decuac decuac!avolio
Steve Bellovin ulysses ulysses!smb
Scott Bradner husc6
Lindsay Cleveland akgua akgua!glc
Erik Fair ucbvax
Greg Fowler hplabs hplabs!fowler
Ron Heiby cuae2 cuae2!heiby
Peter Honeyman allegra
Mark Horton cbosgd cbosgd!mark
Curtis Jackson burl burl!rcj (later moss!rcj)
Robert Lake alberta alberta!lake

Mel Pleasant rutgers rutgers!pleasant
Gene Spafford gatech gatech!spaf
Henry Spencer utzoo utzoo!henry
Armando Stettner decvax
Sid Stuart linus linus!sid
Greg Woods hao hao!woods
mcnc

I'm sure I've missed others, but these were all important folks/machines

Who wants to make the next pass at completing this list?
