Almost everyone knows the aphorism that says "Just because you can, doesn't mean that you should."  Nobody thinks it applies to them.  One of the most prevalent problems of "content" on the Internet is that all the people who technically can but probably shouldn't, DO.


I had a second thought I intended to put here.  Honest.  But something distracted me and ... well, they say memory is the second thing to go.  Damned if I can remember what the first is supposed to be.

HAHAHA. Me exactly as well. Issue #1 was great. #2 was ok. #3... I stopped around the time you did. Despite knowing a couple of good reporters there.

I want to "Otto" them. You know, "The Well was not the first BBS or the first 'online community;' the modem was not invented or 'liberated' in Silicon Valley; the first public ISP was not The Well; and it was not the first place to make the Internet available to the public- Those are all mistakes, Otto. I looked them up^W^W^Wlived through it."
