I just did a "search" on Omaha Steve, here in just the DUmpster and the DUmping Ground.
He's been mentioned ever since January 2008, when conservativecave was just a few days old, and there's lots and lots of campfires lit by him on Skins's island immortalized over here.
One suspects he'd been mentioned a great deal more at our old home, circa 2004-2007, because it was at our old home that most of us got to know him.
He hasn't been as well-mentioned here as other primitives of prominence, but he's been mentioned a good deal.
I think my fellow Nebraskan needs to come over here more often, to read about himself.
