Dec 1995!

Things must have been so different then...

no digital cameras - how did people post pics for comments and advice?

PLUS - Fewer internet sites!

maybe they took pictures and scanned them in?

maybe it was easier back then...less things to confuse them!

Want to see what LIW looked like back then? Check the many facelifts LIW has gone through:

LIW - December 1996

LIW - November 1999

LIW - December 2000

LIW - November 2001

LIW - December 2003

You can look up any website, there are multiple screenshots for everything. Pretty interesting, huh?

Dear Betty is still available... but I met her! Her name is Maria!! And she's very nice and helpful! (I wonder if the original 'Dear Betty' was 'Betty'?)
