Wow! I've been married for 31 years and been a member of this group for close to that. I'm not a gold-star MOPO-ite but it's been a long and very interesting run since the flame wars with Claude Litton and other outspoken collectors. Appreciate you, Scott, for keeping it together.

Hello MoPo-Land…

 

Another year has whizzed by and MoPo is now 31 years old. I’m amazed at the staying power of this little group.

 

On February 24, 1995 the first post via American University’s listserv was made. Prior to that, the “early-adopters” just used their e-mail programs to CC the other members. Crude, yes…but it worked. Original member Adam Erhlich was a student at American University in 1995 and was able create the group on AU’s listserv. I’m surprised AU still supports the old-school listserv mailing list software after 31 years…but thankful they do!

 

Here are those who were here on that first listserv day: Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen, Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Jeff Static (using AOL name Static555), Cindy Nemeth-Johannes, Adam Ehrlich, and myself. Michael, Rob and Evan are still with the group.

  

Thanks to all for keeping MoPo alive!
