Welcome to my little home on nyx.net. This is the oldest continuing account I have. Others have been older, but they've all either been lost, forgotten about or deleted.

I became a validated user of nyx on 19 August 1998. Here's proof, as in the headers from the e-mail I got when they validated me :)
