I'm floored that you still have the same email address from 1993! My first was in 1997 or so when we got AOL. Oh, it was the COOLEST thing ever, with awesome chat rooms. And I totally met people there, became pen pals with several members & sent small gifts back/forth, shared pictures, had phone conversations, and even met one person (okay, not the smartest idea). But I got rid of that email address pretty quickly, it would sound like it's porn related today. But back then user names were much harder to figure out because it was a totally different naming convention... whoops!

I still use an e-mail address from 1997. I also have a gmail, thank GOD, because the 97 one is pretty immature (high school freshman AOL address).
