(Nitpick: millenia is a PLURAL.  In my dialect  you would need to be
at least 1027 years old to have been involved in previous millennia.)

I was active at Usenet during the late 1980's but not so much in the 1990's.

I Do recall that you were probably the very BEST puzzle composer here at r.p
during the early years of this millennium.  In particular one of your puzzles
intrigued me enough that I composed a webpage describing it, and giving the
source code I eventually wrote to solve this puzzle
(which I call "Ginnow's Solitaire" or "Ginnow's Sieve").:

Searching just now I didn't find your post(s) on this puzzle though
I see I mentioned it in another thread in 2010.
