First off, this was 1998 when we were just four guys interested in the
internet. It wasn't a big deal yet. We had maybe five clients for a
year. Getting in any new work at the time was a big deal.
Second, it's always interesting to me that something good happens after
something bad and people say "Big Deal" or "that was a lucky coincidence,"
and just brush it aside like it was nothing. I choose to believe that
there's more behind it.
It comes down to this (as this thread is winding down now): you can choose
to say we're all here and that everything we do is completely by chance or
that this is all a conscious effort by a higher power who, despite our
stupidity and fraility as humans, hasn't allowed us to completely destroy
the planet.
