Hi Charley, good to see you here again.

I just took the liberty of checking out when you first posted here: 14 April 2001.

(BTW that's not a secret ex-librarian skill because the trick is to click on your name just above one of your posts and then scroll to the bottom of the first page of lists and enter the biggest number (or a few hundred earlier) in the search box. The list then shows your earliest posts.)
