Since the message dated 1956 is from me, apparently, and I was born  
in 1962, I think we can state with some confidence that there was a  
system-clock thing happening.

That appears to be the case; the 04/08/97 archive has the first post  
in the thread on Saracen Sauce, and one from Gunthar asking members  
to spread the word that this list exists. He adds he had already  
posted about it to the East Kingdom listserv (which is where I heard  
about it).

Okay... Happy Ninth Birthday (give or take a few days), SCA-Cooks!
