1. Here’s a clue. My workplace just this week finally recognized the existence of Windows. At this rate, how long do you think it will be before I can go online from work? Hell, our system is so primitive we still have ten more years before we have to worry about Y2K. 2. This post is #654 in a series. Collect them and trade with your friends! 3. 3-13-99. Like most of the people from that early I came over from the now-defunct AOL forum (the SD equivalent of having an ancestor on the _Mayflower_). Since then my most meaningful contribution here was suggesting the creation of the Great Debates forum. My bid for SD immortality. ---

Don’t you know that if they can’t or don’t now, they soon WILL be monitoring your every move?? ) 597 including this. 6/2/99 - so that’s about 150 posts per month. Is that possible??? Wow. * * * * * * This is a non-smoking area. If we see you smoking, we will assume you are on fire and act accordingly. ---
