In the late 90's and early double oughts, I think the yahoo groups were
fairly important. I made many friends in real life that began on a martial
arts list and put the two tech groups that I co-owned on my resume.
These days everyone uses forums and I don't think any of the groups I'm on,
get more than ten posts in a year. Still they're a part of my past and
assuming it's true--Jeff is right, as always---HI JEFF!!
To continue, one shouldn't click on clickbait, but I will miss the more
rowdy days when they mattered, flame wars were common, and on the martial
arts list I belonged to, a few guys kept challenging others to meet and
fight. :)
Hrrm, that may have been an AOL group. Regardless it's a part of my past.
