I /think/ it was cbf that came up with 'nilgewater' to describe your
drivel, but can't be bothered to look it up atm.

The first reference I can find is in 1992, from one Mitch Silverman. The
second is indeed a comment from Chuck Falconer.

I had no idea it went back anywhere near that far.  

Sorry guys. I'm just not that famous.

Apparently you confuse "famous" and "infamous".

The word had zero standing when
you so foolishly tried to add it to wikipedia, and it was removed.

You can repeat this as often as you like, and based on your prior
history, you surely will, but that doesn't change reality.
