When I was in 1st or 2nd grade I read a book about Ham Radio from like 1950.

It said hams call all men "old man" and all women "young lady". I never heard this exchange on my scanner in the 90s. Do people still do this at all? Have any of you ever even once came across it in your decades of hamming?

What happens on packet radio BBS? Are they more in use than present day regular BBSs on the internet? Is there one that I can use with a satellite?

I need study-moto and using computers with space or having BBS friends sounds like a pretty good study fantasy.
