-FIXME Work in progress FIXME +

-As gathering e-mails for past 9 years is going to take some time,  +
-this is going to take some time. As well as covering 9 years of  +
-constant struggle and unrest. +
- +
-Target here is to summarize 9 years of TurnovFree.net. Well,  +
-actually it is 2-3 years prior official existence of  +
-TurnovFree.net and 6 years after. +
- +
-I'm up for some long run here. +

-===== The Beginning ===== +
- +
-Hmm ... the beginning, let me see, let me think a bit. +
- +
-==== The roots ==== +
- +
-TurnovFree.net had its roots in our LAN parties when we were  +
-still at Primary school. We've used to spend weekends by endless  +
-playing of computer games in my room. My class mates brought  +
-computers, we've hooked them up(at the time by magic, what else)  +
-and played till exhaustion. +
- +
-Twice a year, or so, we had a bigger LAN party, not at my parents  +
-place though. We've used other place or Boy Scout's clubhouse on  +
-the "island"(note: next to power station, Konsky trh 201, Turnov).  +
-It was a beautiful place and we were using it for playing computer  +
-games. Silly us. +
-Could you believe we've played through the new years eve as well?  +
-No? Oh yes, we did. +
- +
-So many memories. The cold during the winter and myself in sleeping  +
-bags nicknamed "rakoncajaky" after Josef Rakoncaj. I had two of them  +
-and still they fell short to fend of cold. I remember as well we were  +
-there that morning when my mother called me to tell me my grandfather  +
-got hit by drunken driver. Well, that's a hard reality for you. +
