Yes, it is from 1993. Still very cool though: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.fan.douglas-adams/browse_frm/thread/29b40b7d2300ce6e/1bde2619252bd648#1bde2619252bd648 An excerpt:
Hi, I've finally managed to get a convenient connection to the Internet. I opened an account at the Santa Fe Institute earlier in the year, but it was slow and complicated using it from London so I gave up on it. I know there is a ton of accumulated mail on my Santa Fe account, which I will try and get to. I'll try and post news here from time to time if it seems like it might interest people - for instance, it looks as if the HHGG movie is finally coming after the shelf after 10 years. I'm going to be doing a book signing tour in November, and I've posted a current provisional list of where I'm going. Best, Douglas Adams London, UK
Too bad Newsdemon was not around at the time to help. Come back, Mr. Adams!
