By the way, I think there was an error. I believe Melinda's pic was
confused with one of the pics from someone's Save the Children
packets.

This is largely because the picture archive dates from those days
before the WWW (yes, Virginia, the "internet" existed before the
web) allowed everyone and their cat to have their own webpage.
At the time when it was being actively maintained, it was really
the *only* source of pictures of motssers available.
You'll note that many of the newer motssers (me, for example) have
no picture there.

Well I've had no interest in passing since I came out, and no particular

Informal? Would that be opposed to, say, the kind of formal fucking

Oh my gosh, check out this map of MOTSS posters from 1990...

Subject: Net.motss is born!
From: sd...@bbncca.ARPA (Steve Dyer)
Path: bbncca!sdyer
Organization: Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Cambridge, Ma.
Date: Fri, 7-Oct-83 01:05:04 EDT
Net.motss is a forum for the discussion of gay-related issues of interest
to
all members of USENET. Its name is an acronym for "members of the same
sex",
coined by contributors to net.singles as an analogue to MOTOS--"member of
the
opposite sex." It is therefore, unfortunately, a euphemism of sorts--an
alternative to the preferred 'net.gay'. Nevertheless, the proponents of
the
group have gladly passed on this minor issue so that the group should be
swiftly formed.
It is designed to foster discussion on a wide variety of topics, such as
health problems, parenting, relationships, clearances, job security and
many others. Gay members of USENET will find this a supportive
environment
for the discussion of issues which have immediate impact on their
everyday
lives. Those who aren't gay have an opportunity to be informed by the
discussion, and are encouraged to read the news items and contribute
their
own questions and opinions.
Net.motss is emphatically NOT a newsgroup for the discussion of whether
homosexuality is good or bad, natural or unnatural. Not is it a place
where conduct unsuitable for the net will be allowed or condoned.
Rather, like every USENET news group, it is an opportunity for people
all across the world to express their opinions, exchange ideas, and
come to appreciate the diversity within the USENET membership.

It still is being maintained, FSVO "actively". Steve Dyer
archived something there for me last month.

Looking at those pictures is a strange, nostalgic experience.
I have a picture in there that was taken in early 1991, when I
was (obviously) 8 years younger and 45lbs lighter (I was so
skinny!) A very very interesting time of my life. The other
pictures are two years later, during a _mistake_ period of
my life.
Fascinating.

I know it looks like it could be, but from JoJo's lips

Knowing JoJo, there's no reason for him not to tell the

Cute, but not hairy enough... or maybe he just went wax-happy for his other

From what I can tell in the mainstream press, this character and his
introduction are pivotal to the plot of the movie.
Good lord, of all its current and previous members, what a... 'safe'
line-up. What about Angel, or Iceman? Shadowcat, Jubilee, Nightcrawler?
And of all she's been through, they take this current bland Jean Grey

Yah. But I seem to remember reading summink about a miscommunication
between Claremont (or who(m)ever) and the artist on Dazzler (which I,
too, have a complete run of (somewhere), scarily enough). She was
designed with two white streaks of hair (which were supposed to be all
punk! and wild!), and the artist though "Hey, she's got gray hair; she
must be ooold. Like, real old. Man." and went all Aunt May for her.
So there!
