My first internet/computer experience was when I was just a wee girl on an apple computer in my mom's class room. I was playing Oregon Trail for hours on end when I accidentally clicked a button and full on porn came up on the screen. It was TERRIBLE! I can't believe there were no safeguards on a school computer. That was probably in 1995 when I was 10 yrs old.

I remember constantly calling my daughter who was away at college and spending long periods of time describing to her what was on the screen so she could help me before hubby came home. Those days I was convinced I could actually blow it up or something. what an idiot!

I'm with you! If your web site is stuck in 1996 talk to Nick or I and we'll get you current! :-) And while we're on a rant, can everyone who uses IE6 <B>PLEASE</B> upgrade your browser? You would make thousands of web designers so very happy. @Nick – Yeah man! I’m with you! If your web site is stuck in 1996 talk to Nick or I and we’ll get you current! :-)

The sad thing is, there are still sites out there that look like they are stuck in 1996! I say its time to nationalize the web and force everyone to update their lookfeel! Who's with me!? BTW, I'm not talking about validation here, just common sense and caring...

I have worked with both of these guys on various projects at FAAR and I can not say enough about what I have learned from them, both in the design and technical realm, and that of friendship, kindness and making the little things count. I remember TIR. That was my very first provider in the land of all things email and web. It was the little engine that could and for those of you who knew The Ramp back then and now know Brad and Scott today... you know what I am talking about. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. I miss working with you guys! In response to Brad’s response to Scott Gifford…

Scott has more information in his head and flannels in his closet that I could ever hope to have! :-) Thanks for the kind words Scott. We had a great team back then.
