なぜ日本人（大和民族）は英語を中高6年勉強してるのに英語を使えないのか！体制側の陰謀？

ドントラフ上田大使

I was in college, was about 1992-6.

I was going to the "Computer Room" and
wait for a TE-1001 or an IBM 3270 to be available
. (just green characters on the screen, in both cases.)

Then going on the very first IRCs,
the "forbidden ones", and downloading a file of a few KBytes,
text file, that was some sort of Base64 encoding
(was not exactly this one but similar concept),
to then move the files to the shared folder,
and wait for the single Windows 3.1 PM
(because was the only one that had a floppy disk available.)

Then moving my files,
going home,
and decompressing these files that were image files
(usually GIF, very low resolution, something about 320X250), and see them with my friends on an Amiga computer.
