Maybe we should call it the first time that you used the Internet Protocol (IP), directly or indirectly? (Including sending email to an Internet @ address.)
What are we calling the Net here? When I connected to CompuServe in 1980, it wasn't hooked to anything else. My first connection to the actual Internet happened in 1988, when I used UseNet for the first time. On the other hand, if Brett actually touched ArpaNet, he was on the Internet in 1976, since ArpaNet became the Internet.
