We could use the date of the first attempted login from UCLA to PARC:

	Scene: Bob Braden is sitting at a computer keyboard near an IMP 
connected to the one-and-only
	line in the Internet, which runs at 9600 bps. He is surrounded by 
expectant onlookers. Via
	telephone, they are connected to Xerox Palo Alto Research Center 
(PARC), where the *other*
	IMP and computer are. They plan to attempt to log into said computer. 
Bob speaks into the phone:

	Braden: "I'm about to send an 'L'"
	voice:  "copy, you are about to send an 'L'"
		--- click ---
	Braden: "I sent the 'L'"
	voice:  "we saw the 'L'"

	Braden: "I'm about to send an 'O'"
	voice:  "copy, you are about to send an 'O'"
		--- click ---
	Braden: "I sent the 'O'"
	voice:  "we saw the 'O'"

	Braden: "I'm about to send an 'G'"
	voice:  "copy, you are about to send an 'G'"
		--- click ---
	Braden: "I sent the 'G'"
	voice:  "hang on... the computer crashed..."

Per Len Kleinrock, the first message sent over the Internet :^)
