2. I don't know why I find this Familiar...I don't know...

I didn't get onto the Internet until Win95..and AOL...and I was clueless before that. I worked in "Dead Tree Publishing" and had another life.

My only experience with Internet "Discussion" was when after Stolen Election 2000....I found DU and signed up in 2001. I missed a lot. Most of my time after I signed up for Win95 and AOL was spent defending Bill Clinton by reading "Media Whores Online," Joe Conason and his fellow Reporter from Arkansas (can't remember name now) on Salon defending Clinton against the RW...(Which I was REALLY INTO--for a Very Long Time)

My only internet dialogues with humans has been here on DU...I've watched it evolve..

It's not looking good. I wish that "Media Whores Online" was still out there Plugging away. This is short... Don't want to write about it anymore. It is what it is.

We should be pleased we at least had some "Salad Years."
