I found FR from a link on the Drudge Report, right before Drudge removed it because someone on FR rightly called him a pole smoker.
I think Jim had on up about a year before I heard CAL on Rush and started lurking. Amon, Yellow Rose of Texas and Two Thirds Vote Aye convinced me to register. I remember after the first two weeks Rose told me “you need and editor.”
