What the fuck happened again? I would love a potted history of what went on. Did the name change happen earlier? I can't remember fuck all.
As I remember it,

99ish?-00/01 — Steve has message board "Satch's Forums."
00/01 — a fellow named gippah runs the board, has massive falling out with everyone and deletes it.
01ish? — Inder and Steve bring Satch's back online; the original IMCT boot repository comes online.
03 — IMCT mp3 server shut down by The Man; user "matedog" begins posting reprehensible food and music opinions.
04-05? — Inder takes executive decision to rebrand Satch's Forums to "If Music Could Talk", with "Red Sox Fans Talk About The Clash" a close second in a poll.
08 — original host/server is kaput; IMCT comes back on new server.
I joined in 06 and I don't think my food opinions were ever that controversial other than the fact that I can enjoy non-stodgy/traditional pizza and I love my coffee loaded up with all sorts of goodies.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Yeah, I remember you showing up. I started posting in January or February of 2003.

You mean a caffeinated sundae, not coffee.

That sounds great to me.

I agree, it's a decent dessert or treat once in a while. But it ain't one's daily coffee.

Yeah, I thought it was me who had the reprehensible food opinions. By the way, I had ham, egg and chips for my tea.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I would say that that sounds fine, but I can't say for sure what ham, eggs, and chips means to you. It could be bloody pig anus, some kind of grasshopper soup, and fried bat eyes.

Was it pronounced "gippah" or "gippah." Whatever, it's a stupid name and I don't like the sound of him. I never joined til Dec 2003 so I missed him.

Pretty sure the latter. Maybe the former.

I had a love/hate relationship with my old name. I hated that I made it one word, and felt guilty because I’m no poet, but it also was one of my favorite lyrics.
