Do you remember how difficult it was to be accepted on DU when you first joined? [View All]

I was one of the early ones. My son encouraged me to join. I lurked for a while and then began to post responses to other peoples' posts. Finally I posted one of my own and it sunk like a stone ( don't remember what it was about but it probable deserved to sink). Eventually it got easier, likely because I was "Will Pitt's Mom" but even that had its baggage! Anyway, I was just thinking about how welcoming we are or not...I wonder what new posters think about this place.
