h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Saw you posting to Mrs Zen's journal.

h2g2 has been crazy recently. But it's going to be good!

If you want any info, just ask.

Hey, thanks!

Just searching for something for the History page - I remember posting something from an old palm pilot/nokia phone/modem whilst in the pub at the first London meet-up...

Phew, good luck. Needles, haystacks...

Hmmm - well I think I've narrowed it down to 3 time periods - December 1999 (unlikely), July 2001 (more likely) or January 2002 (most likely).

Is there a way - these days - to get a view of all postings made by you during a specific period? (I'm pretty sure there used to be a way to do this...).

Uh, you can manipulate the URL of your conversations. It's not perfect but it's the way I'd do it! Here's yours:

Play around with skip=xxxx. The link above takes you to Oct 2001.

The meet you linked to in the other thread sounded like the right place, because it mentioned the deaf customers that shared the first pub with you before you moved on.

Actually, thanks to a combination of goo, the wayback machine, and sheer b100dy mindedness I found the post... Just one mind, from January 26th 2002.....

only has ~ 12 years of posts to trawl through... OK so the last 6 have been pretty barren, but...
