I stumbled apon a user called Anonymous, and I noticed that his join date is 05-11-1978!!! I have my doubts that this sight has even been around for that long. I wonder how he changed the join date...

If you don't believe he, here is the link to his public profile. Go see for yourself:

I seem to remember the first web browser, NCSA Mosaic, being created around 1992:

So I'm guessing that fellow's join date is a data glitch more likely.

I figured that, just though it would be funny to post this guys profile. Mabe he hacked the server, and changed the values, to mess with people's minds. You never know what people will do these days...

1-1-1970 @ 12:00 A.M. is "ground zero" for the UNIX/C timebase. What you see in "Last Activity:" will be offset by the difference between your local time and GMT.
