Hello! Old school fansubber here! :)

Hey everyone! My name is Jason Salce. I co-founded #fansubs on Efnet/IRC with friend from middle school. We started #fansubs to basically be able to keep in touch since I moved away to go to college. Together our studio was RYS Productions.
I first discovered anime in high school and was hooked. After meeting other people that subtitled Matt and I decided to put our hat in the ring. Did my best to get through as many Yu Yu Hakusho episodes as I could while getting my college degree (I remember Barbara helping me with my homework a few times). I actually stumbled upon this forum just reminiscing about the #fansubs days and seeing who was still around on the Internet. Very cool to see some familiar faces on this forum.
These days I am on year 23 at the patent and trademark office as a patent examiner. I am also a small business owner with a collectibles store that carries mostly vinyl records with a specialization in Japanese music/artists.
Very cool to see all the old school fansubbers here. I have kept in touch with a lot of people from #fansubs and quite a few of them live in Northern Virginia now and we get together all the time.
