i don't know when I arrived, it was pretty early on (and I was not under my current moniker), but it was a great day for me. I can remember celebrating the first birthday! I can't believe it is ten years (one always says that).

Among the earliest highlights for me was, at the height of my early obsession, I was in Borneo and was actually able to get on Mudcat from a cafe in a village in the middle of the jungle! It was at that point that I realized that the Internet was more than just a passing fancy (as is Mudcat).

The second was the big meeting of Mudcatters in Toronto early on. I have never really gotten over seeing so many wonderful people suddenly become attached to names I knew well.

And so many friends, some here and some gone.

yours,

Peter T.
