My debut on TIPS is lost in the mists of time (and my faulty memory) but my best guess would be that I joined for the first time some time after August 1994 when I began in my current position and it was recommended to me by my division chair, Dave Johnson.

I believe I first joined in mid-1993 - shortly before I taught my first college class. As I recall Stephen Black was already a member. I have early recall of Bob Wildblood, Rick Froman, Mike Scoles, Ken Steele and Robin (then Pearce?) Abrahams, and of course TIPS creator Bill Southerly, but it seems that many of the others who were in my "freshman class" have long gone. I remember when the multicultural dude joined - though not what year - as his posts were puzzling and there was a buzz about whether he actually was who he said he was. What ever happened to Ron Blue? What was the theory he always offered? Opponent-process model? Any other Oldster Tipsters around? And Happy New Year to Oldsters and Newsters.
