18. I lurked from April, 2000 and joined in September, I think. ..

I was a "newbie to the net" and didn't immediately go to the DU "Lounge" to get my "badge" so I could post. I just went ahead and blurbed out my posts without doing that "hat tip," but I was here when Will first came on the scene so maybe my memory fails that I was an earlier poster than memory serves .But I never fit in well here, at beginning, mostly because I though Will was the "cat's meow." I later "turned and fought with him." LOL's...how funny some of us might be from our early days to now. And, folks thought I was a "troll" in those early days...and many still think so! LOL's, sadly...

BTW...Will's early stuff was so good it made the "ladies weep."

But, I'm aware of most of you...and did visit the Lounge in the Early Days...but because I hadn't been "vetted" as a newbie....I mostly never fit in there...but there were a few times it was good to be there in the "old lounge" before the "Yak's and other fun stuff."

Keph....well....we know he gave his life to posting every article he could find to "inform us" before the new "lib internets" could take hold like we have today.

I know Keph has a "pyramid" for his ashes. If I could have carved a Tombstone for him...I would have wished... "I Informed" as what he might have liked put there.

So many years ago...so much has happened since...and so many lost folks who participated and now newbies who are working for change that's gone beyond "Stolen Election 2000."

Well...just chiming in...for whatever.
