So, I suppose I'm an old-timer now (but to me old-timers were around
before the "great renaming", not before "the endless September"). I just
hope I don't start saying "in my day, things were better", I hope I
continue to see that people who have only just started on the internet
may have good ideas and ways of doing things that are better then the
old ways.

Wow! Congratulations - that's amazing. You have a wonderful attitude
about it, also. :-)

I've been posting to Usenet since around 1997, and I'm definitely
already an "old-timer" in some groups, but I feel like a newbie
compared with you! How interesting to have been a part of the early
history of the medium.

And I hope I'm still on usenet to post my twentieth anniversary message.

Ditto! :-)

Karen, also with kids past the baby but not quite into the teenager
stage ...
