What's so funny about me using USENET since I was about... 7?
My dad was a manager for Radio Shack when I was born, I had my first PC with online service (This was the original Prodigy in 1988) when I was 4. I had AOL from like 1992-1995 then I got another AOL account in 1997-2001ish (all the while having a real dial-up account so on IRC I wouldn't have an *.ipt.aol.com hostname)
I don't see what the big deal is?? :dunno:
I've honestly been using the Internet for 17 years. Suck one

Yippy skippy for you.
(Back around '93 I used to sign up for AOL trials with assorted credit cards of my parents and then cancel them before charges posted to the account.)

I've always had internet since I was born. My family has always had internet for years and years. Back when you had to trace an email from server to server and include all of that into the address. For a long time my dad had one of the largest mailing lists in the world. Its still pretty far up there I think. But he doesn't manage it anymore.
