[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have spent a few moments seeking the truth about some LuG history. Curious about the origin of the PAW (of which Kyle is the champion but he has also repeatedly denied status of 'originator') I have uncovered the following facts. Ted Grant suggested a photo-a-day for 1999/the 'last year of the millennium' http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/v04/msg07934.html http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/v04/msg08071.html Kyle announced your PAW here on New Year's Eve: http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/v13/msg06105.html Denied status as originator in 2001 here (and in numerous other places in the archive): http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/v19/msg02489.html And here is the first mention specifically of the term PAW by Bob Keene or Karen Shehade (I think it was Bob who posted): http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/v13/msg05706.html So, there you go. Bob Keene, it was all his fault, um, idea, I mean. Thanks go to Brian for maintaining the archive and providing a simple, efficient search function to go with it. Something that means something will follow, at some stage.
