ahhh the early days of computers. Fun tikes they were.

My group of friends were Computer Scientists, I was not. But we would often take over the Campus Computer Lab at night time, and play Net Doom until someone fell asleep.

I was at UW Madison from 95-99 and knew almost nothing about the computers I was using. Still don’t, really. But it always amused me that the male middle eastern students would openly look at porn on the library computer lab computers and nobody would say anything to them about it.

Porn has long been a huge push for technogy advancements. Porn helped VHS defeat Betamax.

Suprised some campus feminists didn't make a big deal about it.

At the time feminists I knew and observed seemed more concerned about either freeing Tibet or whether they’d be willing to blow Bill Clinton for supporting abortion.
