The first domain I registered was my employer, att.com. Since “&” was not allowed in the syntax, I had to choose between att.com and at-t.com, and that choice was mirrored in future domains. The second domain registered was stargate.com, used by the UUCP Project, the UUCP Zone (the registrar) and the Stargate project (Usenet over satellite.)
More about this effort is in the Stargate Internet Museum web site.
