  Been performing spring cleaning on my e-mail and for giggles tried to find my oldest SQLServerCentral e-mails.

  I know that these aren't the oldest (had my e-mail wiped by my then 1 1/2 year old (see picture))

  October 16th, 2002.  This is before the QOD and back when polls were taken...   Scary thing is the links to the forums from then STILL WORK!

  Here is the e-mail :
