The things we asked before we realized the internet would last forever....

Vampires??? Really Peter? This post celebrates the 20th anniversary of this ridiculous question I asked the internet in 1993 and will serve as a reminder that the internet (and what we do on it) lasts forever. I am glad to see that I have maintained my policy of not being anonymous on the internet – keeps one accountable.

    Ah, yes…the National Capital FreeNet days! If amnesia serves me correct, you provided ad hoc tech support the first time I tried to log on via dial up, as you were the only person I knew at that point who was Internet-connected. (I don’t know how in the heck I remember this, but after connecting the first time, one had to hit ENTER a few times once the modems finished shaking hands, which was where I was stuck.)

    To relieve the magic:
