    If you guys aren't familar with The Wayback Machine, it's a great site that archives various web pages at various points in their history. In other words, it's a fun way to look back at how a page you frequent would have looked in say... 2000

    I have seen this site before. It really brings back memories from this site in 2000. I just wish I started posting back then.

    I find myself wasting way too much time on this thing all the time. It's so addictive.

    Wow, so that's what this site used to look like. Man, there used to be a lot of stuff about Car Robots on the front page.

    I guess that's cause it was 2000 when Car Robots were current eh? :p  First time I've seen what this place first looked like... to say that it has grown would not only be a phenomenal understatement, but wouldnt' do the site nor Tony justice!

    Something not quite right about the April 1, 2005 page. Can't put my finger on it.


    And every page I try to bring up to relive the heyday of N&P, it says the page isn't archived/is redirecting to itself ( :sly2:  ).

    :(

    Ahhh, some fond memories of that old site layout.

    I remember visiting way back in 2000/2001 to find Car Robot eps, though I never joined the board till much later.
