AFAIK whoever posts an article made an individual effort, and Poly's
Porch and Rancho Deluxe are Sweet Poly's inventions.
The style, however, might be considered a group effort because it
developed out of the alt.cyberpunk war-strategy against the neu
neutopians, which was originated by Nesta Stubbs in the sado-masochistic
and polymorphous perverse article "Angeli Caduti", followed by .mpa's
"NeuX2 or Desert Dreams", which provoked participation from Sweet Poly,
Gene Mosburg, yrs trly, and others. Thereafter in a joke on dueling
net-god wannabe's, I perpetrated "Li'l CyberRascals" in which Jennacy
Backo made her startling and admirable appearance as an angelette of the
heavens, bringing down the curtain and the house on da name a dat tune.
We miss you Jen (I told you this would happen, using Macs and all ).
