Wow.

You can also read the google archives for April thorugh June of 1999.
Many threads are mangled because posts were later deleted, but if a
responder quoted the deleted post, it still exists in the response.

Of particular interest are the posts by Bert Hoff, who also used the
name xlmeister (and later clever names such as "bert hoff," or "bert
hoff,," and other clever ways to avoid people's filters). Scott
brought in his friend Bert to help settle things down. That resulted
in some of the most amusing threads in rsa history. Bert doesn't post
here much any more. I guess in that sense he shows his mental
superiority over most of us.
