    chat_llm: give the guru persona period-accurate BBS vocabulary

    The guru kept saying "the boards" to mean a BBS's message areas, a
    web-forum phrasing BBS callers and sysops didn't use. Most occurrences
    came from the persona prompt itself: its canned "nothing in the
    archive" reply was "I haven't seen anything about that on the boards."

    Change that line to "on the subs" (or "in the echoes" for a FidoNet or
    DOVE-Net topic), and add a STYLE rule listing the period terms: a
    "board" is one BBS and this one is "the board", singular; "boards"
    means several BBSes; message areas are subs, message bases,
    conferences, or echoes; users are callers who call or log on.
