How did GMG begin?

Lis, Let us know when you enter your second childhood and we will explain the arcana of Bugs Bunny et all.

[Brian]

You are quite welcome, any time, I am glad to be of assistance to your giggling!

P.S. If I were familiar with the characters behind the names you mentioned, Fudd and Buggs, I might even understand why you are giggling. 

Here we go! A cartoon classic.

[Benji]

Here we go! A cartoon classic.

That's the ticket! Hilarious stuff 

[Brünnhilde forever]

Oh you guys! I love you all, especially Brian,    for the entertainment and the education on the subject of American cartoons! I am not only chortling and giggling, I am laughing!

See, that's what I get for not having television, by choice, not necessity, and for spending my childhood in a foreign country!

Refresher course recommended? 

[Herman]

spending my childhood in a foreign country!

Ah, Lis, this is GMG, not the NYT: there are no foreign countries.

[Gabriel]

Yes Gabriel! He was the one who mailed me and said let's come on over. This was in the winter of 2003, around this time of year, I remember now. The moderators came about a year later.

Indeed, I wrote to you, Herman! Yes, I'm quite sure it was in January or February 2003. I recall that there had been some problems in CMG for a while, and after a specific and unpleasant incident (which, fortunately I guess, I don't remember) many of the posters decided not to post in that site anymore, including me and those who you have mentioned. I don't know exactly how we got to GMG, but remember I received an e-mail from one of the members (possibly André/Lilas?) telling me about this site, so we coordinated by e-mail our arrival to this new musical home.

I also remember Lin from the (re)founding group. (Lin/Rach, if I'm not mistaken).

David, I am sincerely thankful to your words. I'm sure Haydn's music expresses itself very well, but if my enthousiasm contributed as a vehicle for your motivation, I cannot but feel a great and humble joy.
