it's sad that the internet became what it did. you couldn't even get on it anonymously, but had to have an account with a university or defense contractor before al gore discovered it and got congress to give it away to the corporations. you could make a handle, but the provider had to know who you are and the forums were mostly professsional and tightly moderated.
This is quite true. Real names were required until...maybe the mid-Eighties? So what were you, an academic or a defense contractor?
