I'm still around! I
broke out SOE at work today, I put a line on my forearm and my coworkers were really talkative and one in particular
was touching my leg whenever I said a witty remark(she has never done that before). SOE is my go to product!

I'm not really an old timer
compared to some of you guys, but I do remember some great discussions over the years, be it pheromones or politics
or cover scents or what it means to be an alpha male. Good stuff.
Also remember waiting for that first box 'o
mones to arrive in my mailbox, and the thrill of my first few "hits". What fun. These days I'm in a brand new
environment and having to experiment all over again, but it sure is easier with a few years' practice.
Bruce, I
remember getting my first Netscape set of floppy disks in the mail, but I'll pre-date you a bit, remember
"Compuserve"? Dial-up was a hoot in those days, getting booted automatically after an hour or two and logging back
on again and again to get that coveted 56k connection.
Gotta take this opportunity to thank Bruce, Tammy, the
other Mods and everyone else involved for making Love-Scent such a great experience. It truly is the best pheromone
resource around, bar none.
Thanks guys. MtJim, you go back to
2002. LS was incorporated in 2001 and I think that is about the time we got the forum running "in house" which is
why my join date shows that date. I can't remember what forum app we used back then but we moved over to vBulletin
about the time my daughter was born 6 years ago if I'm not mistaken (about the forum move; not when my daughter was
born )
The very first LS forum was born either late 1998 or early 99. It was just one freeforall group blog
really.

Oh yes, CompuServe...
On my Apple
II+ (well, actually a B&H 3048D - which I still have)
Whopping 300bps
Danged modem card cost
more in those day's dollars than some whole computers do today...
I even achieved co-sysop status on
our local library's BBS (running on an Apple with a 20mb Sider hard drive). Ah the power I could wield...

I remember having the C-Amiga
and an HST 1200 baud modem. Those days 1200 baud was considered very high class.... hahaha how technology has
changed.
I see many of the old time users of this board have gone to become moderators.... good stuff... but
where are the rest of the guys?
All the guys behind the mixes and stuff? I wonder if they all got married
and never needed mones again...
Love scent has terrific products, also the message archives are second to
none. I spend half my time there.
I wonder if a new injection of enthusiasm is needed to kickstart the
forum again... That is the only area I see falling behind over the past year or two...

Wow, the modem days. I was in Japan
when the internet first arrived there. We lived in Sendai and had to dial up a number in TOKYO to hook up to the
internet. That was in 98 I believe. Then we got a Sendai number at some point. Our ISP was called ifnet. At some
point we got a cable TV connection with internet service. That was the year that Apple came out with the first
wireless hub. I think they called it the "airport" in Japan. I bought one of the first in the shop. I also had
one of the first Mac i-books (the "clam shell"). I can remember the look on the kid who came to hook up our cable
internet when I showed him how my laptop connected to the internet without a wire. I guess that must have been
about 2001.
But, yeah, I remember the modem wars. Every few months they came out with a bigger badder faster
one. I think I specifically remember my 256. Wow!
I also remember my first post internet visit to the US. I
set up a mobile Earthlink account I could dial up in my motel room.

Maybe all the older posters with the
"mixes and stuff" died happily doing what they enjoyed the most....
If you catch my drift...
<cough>
And who's getting called "old" anyway. (Notice how long it took me to realize
that... I must be gettin' old...)
