Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston had top hits. The Soviet Union is
crumbling.<BR>The Gulf War begins. And on the 11th the domain Team.Net is
registered.<BR><BR>Happy birthday to us, 24 years and still kicking. Formed
out of the Usenet rec.autos tree,<BR>it started with just 2 lists, autox and
british-cars. It became large enough and busy enough<BR>that the officials at
the U noticed that a large amount of network traffic was coming from
one<BR>certain machine in my office. That is what prompted the move to a
private server, which has been<BR>in my basement for many years. Well, we are
NOT running on the same server from back then, which I<BR>recall was one of
the first 120 Megahertz systems in the valley outside of universities. With
the<BR>CS departments work with Hewlett-Packard, I had a connection.<BR><BR>A
lot has changed over the years, folks have come and gone, some have been
hanging out here for<BR>decades. We've lost a few good ones, but many of us
have found lasting friendships from list<BR>communications. Back in the early
days there wasn't much besides Team.Net. I think the 1997<BR>SCCA Solo II
nationals had something like 60% of the entrants being autox list
subscribers.<BR>Those were the days.<BR><BR>But still here, still providing a
valuable service to those who use it. Thanks to all of us<BR>for making
Team.Net what it is.<BR><BR>Happy
Birthday.<BR><BR>mjb.<BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Support
