Anybody know when it really was 6 and for extra credit what

I registered
cayman.com in '87 and it's now it's in the "first
100".
So 6 in '85 does not seem completely out of whack.
I suspect
symbolics.com was the first ".com" but I don't really know.
You can guess who the first .edu's were - just look at an old arpanet map.
(yes, there I was, sitting on my horse - in '87 - watching the prairie
grass blow and wondering what the *hell* those long iron rails were
