Re: History of the Cafe
I'm no expert on the history but I believe there was in iteration of the Café prior to the last forum that launched ~2002 and all the users had to be rebuilt, thus the no earlier than 2002 Member since dates. Notice Scott is a Member since September 2002 but his signature has since 1995.
I believe the old forum was launched in 2002 and cobbled together with bits and increasingly larger bits of custom code by Dan and Scott until maintenance became so time consuming that it was either time to close down due to burn out or explore new software.... and here we are.
Of all the tubes that make up the internets, this one is my favorite.

EDIT:
I waited to reply until Scott had first stab at it as I wasn't around then and my knowledge is anecdotal and thread based.
