Dave Long's UUCP mail.anime mailing list?

The roughly mid-90's and earlier (generally pre-Toonami, pre-anime boom) era of anime & manga fandom: early cons, clubs, tape trading, Nth Generation VHS fansubs, old magazines & fanzines, fandubs, ancient merchandise, rec.arts.anime, and more!

Dave Long's UUCP mail.anime mailing list?

Post by mbanu »

Supposedly it pre-dates the Urusei Yatsura mailing list -- it looks like it was around in 1985:
This is a list of mailing lists available on the network. A mailing list is different from a newsgroup because you do not receive anything unless you specifically request it. To be added to a mailing list, please mail a note to the contact for that list.

Some of the lists mentioned may be available as limited-distribution newsgroups. Contact the administrator for exact details.

mail.anime
Contact: ihnp4!oliveb!long (Dave Long)

Purpose: To provide information exchange for Japanese animation fen.

Does anyone have any more info on Dave Long or what became of the mailing list?
mbanu: What's between Old School and New School?
runesaint: Hmmm. "Middle School", perhaps?
