Love to hear memories of the olden NMS days, honestly, even if it makes me feel rather old myself looking back at launch day 
You should put those memoires to use though! We’ve been requested to submit 2016 memories to the system via the addition form again using certain formatting, linked here: Time to go Forward - #23 by toddumptious
I’m sure System would love to anchor in some memories from an NMS legend like you!
