Yes, the Dec system 20 was in CERAS next door to UGLY. 

Well, I was close.  Amazing how 35 years can cloud the memories.  I remember there was a signup sheet for terminal access, and once you got one you could stay on as long as you wanted so long as you didn't fall asleep.  If you did, a bearded Comp Sci major that smelled like he hadn't bathed in weeks would tap you on the shoulder and tell you to give up your terminal.

That bearded Comp Sci grad student was probably K.Kuddles.  I no longer remember his real  name, but he was actually a very warm, nice guy underneath the scruffy exterior.  He gave me a lot of help on my 105 homework.

I wonder if that was someone I knew. (I started in the CS PhD program in '81, so might have overlapped with him.)
