I was having an argument with another FReeper about how many of the old timers were still around. I tell people there is a FReeper vsyndrome and that most of them are still around, they just don't post much anymore.

Here is your chance to put these rumours to rest. Chime in and let everyone know you still are alive and kicking. Post your registration number if you know it.

#32, reporting for duty!
(On second thought, scratch that line -- Kerry ruined it for me.)

[RadioAstronomer]

Good to see you as well. :-)

(posting here even though I am a newbie, I only have 10,272 posts so far.)

[Free State Four]

Chris, you're # 5920-- a real veteran. Always enjoy your posts.

Agreed!

[Randy Larsen]

But I'm still here every day!

[zarf]

Signing in sir!!

Thanks. Using that link you provided, I found an old thread that I replied to in 1998.

Hyde Expands Probe to Fund Raising

                     By LAURIE KELLMAN Associated Press Writer

                     WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee is expanding its
                     impeachment investigation to fund-raising allegations against President Clinton, committee
                     sources said Monday.

                     The panel will seek subpoenas for internal Justice Department memos debating whether an
                     independent counsel should have been named in the fund-raising inquiry, said the sources,
                     speaking on condition of anonymity.

                     Republicans also will seek testimony this week from FBI Director Louis Freeh and Justice
                     Department prosecutor Charles LaBella, both of whom advocated an independent counsel be
                     named to investigate Clinton's 1996 fund-raising activities.

                     The Republicans will vote behind closed doors Tuesday also to send document subpoenas to
                     Attorney General Janet Reno and Clinton demanding that the secret memos Freeh and LaBella
                     wrote advocating their positions be turned over to the committee, the sources said.

My best thread was "poopy pool"

ASH! Now that brings back memories...

What ever happened to OWK "One Who Knows" and Republican(or whatever his nemises was). Those flame war days were wild...

[Syncro]

They just went over to "Fire Talk" and started their own chat room

I think we all went there at the same time kinda.

Jim started it and it morphed quite a bit.

Got pretty racy...LOL

#15433; since 1998-11-09

I watched the March for Justice on C-SPAN on 10/30/98, lurked for ten days before registering.

[Humidston]

Present, boss!

[duckln]

I would have registered sooner, but didn't know what
cookies were back then, less that they had to be set somewhere.

Hopeless FR junkie since 1998.

[Free State Four]

My original signup date was 7-20-1998 as Stalker; I was working for a TV chat room and they wouldn't let me use my screenname anywhere else!

Julie will understand: The usage of "Stalker" brings to mind "Troutstalker". TS is absolutely 97/98 material. TS is as absent these days as I. You have influence. Get TS back here!

[Howlin]

I have influence? Not moi!

I use to get TroutStalker's post when I pulled up my pings until John fixed THAT little problem!

[Nam Vet]

June 27, 1998 after I forgot my original password. Think I first signed up in very late 1997. I don't talk too much and don't post articles. The one vanity I did post was as a newbie under my first sign-up. Page says the following:

You've posted a total of 0 threads and 3,025 replies.

I have no idea how to find my log-in number.

[Billthedrill]

You're 6220. Old fart!

[wolfman]

Still here almost every day. I've found that reading FR does NOT encourage hair growth or weight loss.

[Nam Vet]

AH !! There it is ! I'm # 6220.

Became the proud(?) owner of a hand-me-down computer in 9/98. Took me all of 3 - 4 weeks to find FR. Moved, changed server, rebuilt computer, lost this registration(until recently), reregistered under a new nick which I've been using ever since. It's fun to post under this one occasionally.

Seen lots of change in six years on FR. Most of it good, some of it not so good.

You are correct! Julie knows TS. You do not. I only flagged you because of the "stalker" reference. I'm sorry. It was misguided.
