Yes, the earliest surviving edit is now "This is the new WikiPedia!",
made to HomePage by office.bomis.com, presumably Jimmy. Larry signed a
comment a short time later from a different IP address, so it wasn't
him. Articles were created in the following order:

* HomePage
* WikiPedia
* PhilosophyAndLogic
* UnitedStates
* PopularMusic
* SportS
* MathematicsAndStatistics
* CountriesOfTheWorld
* AaA
* AfghanistaN
* UuU
* TechnologY
* ComputinG
* ComputerSoftware
* TransporT
* NamingConventions
