After following Joe Crawford’s (of ArtLung) first Usenet posting, I decided to see if I could dig up mine. Could never find it in Deja, but Google Groups has dug it up: “Re: What do Coffee Drinkers Want out of life?”, from November 2, 1994.

This being my first post is just way to appropriate.

More interestingly, it’s almost seven years ago to the day since I first went on the Web (using Lynx). In response to my December 5, 1994 post: “Anyone care about the Beats?”, Levi Asher pointed me to his Literary Kicks site in his December 8, 1994 post: “Re: Anyone care about the Beats?”

Seven years on the Web…wow.
