Time flies when you're having fun.MoPo turns 18 today!
On February 24, 1995 the first MoPo post was distributed via American
University's listserv. I'm truly amazed (and very thankful) that American U
keeps their listserv up and running, after all, listservs are SO last
century! It may be a dinosaur, but it still serves us well.
In keeping with my annual tradition, I'd like to recognize the 11 original
MoPo'ers:
Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen,
Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Cynthia Nemeth-Johannes, Adam Ehrlich, myself
(your humble listowner) and AOL'er Static555 (real name is Jeff Static). I
finally stumbled upon his true identity. Michael, Rob and Evan are still
members.
Thanks to everyone for helping MoPo reach this milestone.

MoPo List Owner
