My, my--how this list has changed. I was wondering how many phases this list has gone through, from it's inception. I imagine about 4--the pioneering days of 3.1 and the early computer owners, then phase 2, the years up to when Jen and I joined (my first time), then phase 3, and now phase 4--which I cannot put my finger on when the current phase began, but I know we're in it. I'd like to see the early days posts, from the early to mid-'90s. Where would I go to do that? - --Mark "Xavier, did you bring 'Ray Charles'?" "He's dead."

I have plenty of music- polling in my life already, so I will happily defer to anybody else! While I most assuredly love glenn with all my heart, I'm thinking the poll should continue as it has before, so that we might compare and contrast it fairly over the years. Aaron, you did obsessively save all the results from previous years, didn't you? "It's what I would do!"
