I got on the "interwebs" just before Al Gore invented the internet (no
political statement, just that is the way it was back then.)   15 3.5"
floppy disks, a 33Mhz 486, slackware, (and a really reliable USRobotics
modem.)

I found this thing called "RFC"... and Jim Postel was a man I really
wanted to meet.  

Thanks, Randy, for reminding me of the shoulders I stand on.
