I'm not clear on how I got there, but I went through the Rickenbacker Basses archives and found my first post back on May 15, 2003:

Peter, is there an easy way to search the archives for specific words or bylines?

Cool Paul! I am really having a blast with these archives. I found Paul W's first posts a few weeks ago in the Vibrola archives.

Cool. I remember when Bob Young was Bobampeg! And Jeff Rath with only 4 Ricks?!

Huh. I know where my 1st forum posting exactly is (Nov 02, 2003). Not in "Bass" section, and not in archives yet, and in the middle of the thread.

I was looking to find the session about the first "Rick Confluence" over at Rath's place (Rath, Cooper, and me) in June 2004, but no 2004 archive yet. Jeff had done a little Photoshop trick and "swirled" a picture of all the basses, referring to my use of the term "confluence."
