What's with all the webmasters who claim to have started in '96 or '97 that I've never heard of? I guess it's possible. Maybe a lot of people just finding the boards for the first time?

Ha! Colin this is funny timing... I have 1997 on one of my pages that I was about to update.. and was just thinking to myself.. "hmmm is that really correct or was I just exagerating when I put that originally on page?"
First domain I bought was 1999.. but I played around as a part time hobby on freehosts for ages.. I started when c.o.n.d.o.m. very first appeared.. think slightly before Serge dragged the Ynot crowd over I think (anyone know that date?)
Anyway.. I have an excuse of having not cared about the event to recall the date that baldbastard finally convinced me to look at adult as a way to internet riches (I was all keyed up to make websites for small companies at the time.. thank r-n he saved me!)
BUT.. you are dead right about 1997 being a popular date... I saw some tossers who write articles for a webmaster newsletter claim they had started in 97 recently... people who I first met through them asking how to get started in about 2001
Will the rest of the Class of '97 stand up and be counted
(if you dare) LOL
