I was POSH before you were.

Via Stennie on #perlnet, the Microformats Wiki lists me as the originator of the term “Plain Old Semantic HTML”:

The earliest references to “plain old semantic HTML” that have been found so far are:
1998-05-01: Kirrily ‘Skud’ Robert on comp.infosystems.www.authoring.site-design - “The site is implemented in HTML 4.0 Transitional with style sheets; this means that anyone with an older browser won’t get presentational markup, just plain old semantic HTML. “

How cool is that? I wish I’d acronymed it at the time.
