Lee451 & Eliza met in the old Paramount chat rooms in October 1999. Lee still has the first e-mail that Eliza sent him on October 6th of that year. They were soon writing & talking in chat & on AIM on an almost daily basis. They met in person in May and in October 2000.
Lee lives in Fredericksburg, Virginia with his four cats and works for GEICO insurance there. Eliza is a stay-at-home-mommy lawyer who lives in California with her three kids, two cats and one dog. It remains to be seen whether these two lives can be brought together in that realm beyond cyberspace known as real life. :)
