Having joined in March of 1999 it's good to see this forum still going strong.

Was the technical level of discussion on this thread better or worse last century?

We were more populated by more or less normal F1 fans with a technical bent then. Now the tech literacy of the discourse is at a generally higher level, though there's less awestruck wonder and curiosity evident I reckon.

I know, you didn't ask me.

The answer's pretty much spot on, however...

I recall Art once telling me that it was really sad that we had so little technical talk on the forum. He thought it was a bit of a joke, but it was truly slow in here for a long time.
