Since Zeke mentioned me by name in the other thread, I should probably contribute here.

In the summer of 2002, I had a coop job in Vancouver that involved a night shift. My sleep schedule was far out of sync with the rest of my social circle, which meant my weekends were rather lonely (there is buggerall to do at 4AM, even in a major city like Vancouver). During one of my frequent webcrawls, I came across Jim's Delta Blues page for some reason or another. Or was it TrekBBS? I don't recall. Either way, I followed links to 5MV and whiled away the hours reading the archives until the sky lightened and it was time to go to sleep. Eventually I discovered that new stuff was being posted as well, and started following the updates. I finally registered in the fora (call me snooty) that December (the "December before last" in my sig), and had my first fiver written and published by March 2003.

And I've been making a nuisance of myself ever since.
