Subject: You Know You're a Newbie When...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The other night, Fia and I were talking about the good old days, which both
of us were sure that most of the "newbies" of today would hardly be able to
imagine. Then... in the middle of our AMAZING conversation, we were
interrupted:  [doom] Shift: I'd ike to have a definition of newbie

So, just for kicks... here's my definition.  Keep in mind I started playing
