Before this date...

...Mac n' I hung out on the Brit X forum.
Coupla lone PacNW X-heads with nothing better to do.
I believe I clued Mac about Mirafiori.
Which was less 124-centric at the time.
Mac's flamboyant style raised an eyebrow.
Or two. :-P

Mac soon floated concept of X-specific forum past me.
Inquiring...would I be interested?
DOH! Yeah!
And predecessor of X-Web was born.
Known as Seattle X1/9, or similar.
Ulix got there 1st as member #1.
I followed as member #2.
Believe MFreeman, MPlaia soon followed.

A number of early contributors have vanished.
Most noteable, "Doc" from East Coast.
He made a visit to PacNW, then disappeared.
