Sorry, misunderstood.
So you were lurking before 1998?
Me too. I dont remember how long I was a lurker, but I do remember getting up the courage to finally sign up when I wanted to post my first brilliant comment! Ha ha!
I am not sure what I said that is confusing you. I tried to figure it out. But no I did not lurk for long at all. I remember I felt really scared to signup and post, but I felt like minded with the people here. When everyone thinks your crazy and then you read the writings of “ACE”. Fresh air. Like so many here from that time- I found a link on Drudge during the Clinton mess. It seems like the Blue dress was of the first things I posted about.
