Wonder what happened to that group they rode with? Aus something or other.
Lost to the all-eroding "social progress" world-of-apps methinks
And on that score...a blast from the past...got an email from Yahoo-groups the other day, announcing their major re-design of the "Groups"-platform.
Had totally forgotten about them.
It was sort of something like the old Newsgroups-on-http thing, with 1000's of interest groups around the globe. The Flintstones of FaceBook...
They hosted the first ever Strom-owners group in late 2001 which grew to over 4000 members.
Met Jimbo there (then still living on Hawaii before moving to Oregon)...and quite a few of the later founders and tech-heads of VSRI (like John in Reno and that brilliant Kraut automotive engineer who worked for the Schnitzer-BMW TouringCar race-team when not fiddling with Stroms...forgot his screen-name).
Yo...."video kills the radio-star" seems like the fitting tune here.
