I started in late winter/early spring of '97, Joe. On my old PC 
(affectionately named 'Frank', short for Frankenstein) there sill 
resides many-a-old-post, including Nolan's "Flight of the Phoenix" in 
which he described hauling the old R-390A from his attic, removing the 
mud dauber nests, and rehabbing it. Was a great post, one of the first I 
saved. I was limited though, by a HD somewhere in the low MEGS for 
space. At the time, it was HUGE.

Maybe Chuck or Mike will chime in if they're listening. I think they 
started it around 95/96 IIRC. I'll ask Mike next time I see him, which 
should be soon because I have an Eldico transmitter for him.
