Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Is that from the beginning?
The earliest of mine seems to be November 1996.

I see lots of stuff about the old "customer choice" survey. :)

I wonder whatever happened to "shifrbv". :)

Hmmmm, it seems my opinions haven't changed much in the past 6 years.
New Yes, modulo forum errors, it's the whole shooting match...

This is a complete snapshot as of 20 July, 1999. There's about\r\nanother five months of post which aren't online.

\r\n\r\n

The first few hundred posts are also overwritten -- the forum\r\ncorruption we came to know and love wiped out the low-order posts, and\r\nyou'll find that the lowest numbers actually correspond to posts made\r\n~1999. Otherwise, the archive stretches back to the first IWE posts in\r\n1995. Numbering is a bit uneven through the first few hundred posts..

\r\n\r\n

Quickly bracketing:

Also: this is the content that I scrubbed significantly -- running\r\ntidy over all the HTML, also updating all links to point\r\nlocally rather than to the old (now absent) archive. I did this ~2000\r\nIIRC, most of a couple of days on the laptop, semi-automated process.\r\nThe archive is of course completely static -- you can't post or update,\r\nthe CGIs don't exist.

\r\n\r\n

This is the same content that's available on the Wayback Archive,\r\nthough formatted and scrubbed to be more useful.

What part of "gestalt" don't you understand?\r\n

New I'm actually enjoying myself.
I've been skipping through some of my posts, exploring threads here and there.

Wade, who has been re-introduced to a style of parting comment he had forgotten about.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
