   Just how long has USENET been alive, anyway?  I just got my system linked up
   a month ago.
   Has anyone written a history of USENET?  Could they post it or send it to
   me email?

Periodically (monthly? bi-weekly?), an article titled, "USENET
Software: History and Sources," is posted to news.announce.newusers.
It'll come around soon again.
