We're all a lot older, and less filled with angst. Some of us got married, some got fat, some still have no idea what to do. But this was a great place once, and from here we discovered friends we never knew we had. We all shared ourselves in ways we wanted to be seen, and maybe even a little bit of truth in there for good measure. I am Dave, and I was part of a great revolution in the way we connected with the outside world. This wasn't Facebook, we didn't have 100s or even 1000s of friend's all leaving one sentence, we had a community of 30 to 40 people that shared their lives with each other; Not in pictures(Because we couldn't just post a picture back then, it was a long drawn out process), but in text, in thought. This was our community, and we acted like it. We made it our own.
