agree  awilliams: I quite like "conception". Certainly not 'onset', anyway. (I can't explain why; it just doesn't work. :))

neutral  bistefano: "From its cioncecption" is good, but why not stick to the text, and say "From its genesis till now" ?

  -> Ciao bistefano. "From its genesis" is not really heard in the US in this context... Grazie.
