Keep going, kiddies... :-) 2 Dec 1984 although that was actually in the
Human-Nets ARPA mailing list which was forwarded into Usenet.  I think
everyone may have been running Rob Kolstad's 'notes' at the time.

Googles archives shows a reply to one of my posts in net.graphics
in early 1985, if you want "real" Usenet. :-)

I'm sure there's someone out there that can beat this O.F. though...

P.S.  Sorry, couldn't semi-conduct, er... resist.
