FREE REPUBLIC ANNIVERSARY DISCUSSION THREAD FOR OLD TIMERS
('97 Sign ups only please)
Although FR was in it's creative/formative stages prior to, November 28, 2007 shall be the 10 year anniversary of Jim formalizing the FR website through registration. I will be hosting a thread for all '97 signups to discuss the early days of FR, where it has gone since and opinions about where it is likely or should go in the future by those who have the unique perspective of watching it's evolution and progress from the beginning.
If you are an EOT (extreme old timer), please mark the date and attend. If you know an EOT please inform them or ping them to this thread. If you know and EOT who doesn't post anymore, ask them to return for this one day of reflective enlightenment.
This will also be a unique opportunity for newbies (anyone after '98...heheh) to read the thoughts and opinions of those who help start this site and propel it to stardom. I'm announcing this way in advance so we have the opportunity to contact as many EOT's as possible
Should be an interesting thread!
NOTE - My apologies to any '98 and later signups, a line has to be drawn somewhere. I thought about extending it through '98 but would that be too many people, too confusing? Thoughts?

I’m getting mail, lot’s of people had issues registering and some lurked but were here in mind and spirit.
An EOT is an EOT.
We might have to expand this to ‘98ers.

Seems to me you could go either way and not be hurt too much. I would tend to doubt 100% of the 1998 signups are still around anyway (no slam intended here). People check things out and move on. It might not add as many people as you think to include the 98s. It would be interesting to run some figures on that.
To: Bob J
Sorry so late with the response.
