You may very well be right on this. The oldest mail messages I
still have on line (from late summer '89) use the term as if
it is already commonplace. I know I used to have a message
explaining the acronym, from the first usage I could recollect,
but I can't find it anywhere, and have changed accounts about
five times since then...
