What began on May 17, 1997 as a worthless "me too" fansite has evolved into a really freaking BIG worthless "me too" fansite. Although there have been lengthy periods of inactivity and no less than five different home servers, the Green Hill Zone has persevered and always emerged triumphant. Larger sites have risen and fallen during the GHZ's silent tenure, and although it's true that we've never quite achieved big-name popularity, the fact remains that WE'RE STILL HERE AND THEY'RE NOT! HA!

   In light of the incidents described in the previous paragraph, the creators of this site would like to devote this small section of cyberspace to indulging their egos. Please take a moment to pay your respects to the men and women who have forsaken their social lives, sacrificed their academic success, and sold their souls to bring you the wealth of utterly useless information contained within these hallowed pages.
