Quote:Catherine, I must congratulate you, it says you joined the forum in 1970 so it seems you went back in time before the web was invented - wow! Was it a Delorean?
Quote:Haha Catherine! Big Grin That has to be a mis-print! Good spotting, Jason!
Actually, maybe you are a secret time-traveller.....?Smiley4
I would love to have you think I have the secret of time travel, but the internet didn't exist in 1970.
Jason, that was quick of you to notice.
It is not a misprint.
I never actually registered for the Forum because it is my site and I was on the site before there was a forum. I am the one who downloaded the forum software package that became the forum and that automatically made me the first member.
I think the 1970 date is a bit of a joke on the part of the software developers. It is the year that two computers were linked for the first time(I looked it up since I am not a computer geek). It is really the birth of what will become the internet. I think it is hilarious and I wonder if there are other jokes that we are missing.
Believe me, by the time Bock and I turned the software into the forum you see now, it felt like I had been on it since 1970.
It was every night until 4am for a week. We both were on MPOP chat room so she could tell me how to do things. I had to be the one to do them since it was all in my name. The Forum was ready for the first post at 4am and I felt I should be the one to make the first post so I went ahead and said something. I grabbed a few hours sleep before a long day of work. When I got home there were all kinds of members and posts. It was a wonderful feeling. I think I will stick with my 1970.
