Default rgc old-timers

I am curious who and how many
of the present active rgc.*
participants were psoting back
on rgc, before the split into
rgcm rgcp rgca rgcc...

I could name at least three people
beside me. In my case, according
to Google, my first post on rgc was
dated 1990-Jan-20; and it was a
diplomatic success :-), see:

I've posted on and off since 1995. Back then, the laws were different
and you could defame people more easily with impunity, hence flame wars
were more popular it seems (or maybe the novelty wore off). I
distinctly recall Yassir Seriwan once replied to one of my flames. Or
somebody pretending to be him.

But I see this newsgroup is stuck in a time warp. Still slamming Sam
Scone and ad hominy attacks. Or however you pronounce that.

they may be shaped into patties and fried;"

Hello Ray!

Somehow the most senior participants
are not sharing their story. The two,
which are still active, are Louis Blair
and Ken Sloan (not to be confused with
Sam, who joined us in early 1995, I
believe). Actually, I see Ken very little
on rgcm these days).

Both Ken and Louis posted on rgc
already in 1989, and perhaps even earlier.

Regards,

Wlod

PS. Those who read how terrible Sam Sloan
is, should click on:
