Subject: Top Ten List from 1996 via Marty!
I received an email from Marty yesterday saying:
"I actually found a print-out from WORDS from 1996! It had a list of
people's favorite songs and albums by a email count. Want a copy?
Marty"
I was like, sure! He was very nice enough to scan it and send it to me and
gave me permission to share it with the list.
The email is from December 20, 1996 !!! The old list address was
words@bg.wsii.com Wow!
Thank you Marty for sharing!
Here is the first part of the email. I have tried to scan it with OCR
Software but it did not come out so well. So please see the links below for
the scanned images from Marty. Also below is the begining of the first email
he scanned. At this time, the list was only about 7 months old!
