I think I first posted to rtl in 1995, although possibly 1996. (Would that
mean I should have a mastadon icon?) That was my first realization that I
was not alone in my hobby. I was fascinated that so many others were
nostalgic for the sets of our childhood the way I was. The only concept
that was foreign to me was that of a Dark Age, as I never had one for Lego®.
However, I did fall into an internet dark age shortly after the Jessiman
Auczilla (it was for James, right?), and thus when I came back online it
took me about a year to discover that Lugnet had sprouted up.
