The first message sent over the ARPANET was from Leonard Kleinrock's UCLA computer by student programmer Charley Kline at 10:30 pm on October 29, 1969, to the second node at Stanford Research Institute's computer in Menlo Park, California.

The message was simply "Lo" instead of the intended word, "login".

It was one of the first network of computer's and when it was being tried out for the first time, they used email.

The sender wished to type the word "login", meaning logging on to the arpanet ; or using the arpanet.

But the sender could only type "lo" before the connection failed.

Thus it is "lo".
