(...) Interesting topic. (...) ... (...) 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 (...) (22 years ago, 22-May-03, to lugnet.general)

Thanks Tobbe! They'll send me a tape once the show has aired. My boss said he could burn a DVD for me when I get the tape. I'll be looking into a way to get the spot put on a CD. Then I can upload it to my website! Dave "Tobbe Arnesson" (...) (22 years ago, 22-May-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.mediawatch)

I just read through the first month of postings to rec.toys.lego (January 1994) and was amused and impressed by some of the things I read. There were many "firsts" of discussions that seem to be ongoing up to the present. I thought it might be (...) (22 years ago, 22-May-03, to lugnet.general)

That is becoming very common these days. I get 3 or four a day in my old yahoo account, and with a size of more then 200 kilobites, they aren't easy on the email account either. Ugg, sometimes I just want to close my ears and scream... -JHK (...) (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-03, to lugnet.general)

Even if they're not clickable, they can be harvested. They just need to be in the format of email addresses. I wouldn't be surprised if someone wrote a bot to scrape up "name at address dot com" too. But, for now that's safe. -Tim (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-03, to lugnet.general)
