Kathryn, although I still have contact on facebook.
Rush is too busy with other things these days.
Remember Neo Amsterdam? He was funny.
Spectrum used to hang out a lot in the LPTP thread...so did Hans Dorn.

I'd like to see Thorin come back too, but he is also busy with other things now.

My old pal, Jefferey the Ant... I don't know where the wind blew you pal, but stop by and say "hi" if you can.

Jeffrey was a gentleman. I wonder what happened to him.

Beets and I didn't get along fantastically, but I do miss him, and others.

Heck! I miss 'em all!

John was a pretty good old boy... had Brian Griffin from Family Guy as his avatar. IIRC, he was going to have to close down and sell off his computer biz a couple years ago.

You may remember that I posted this mystery photo in Angela's Critter Cafe:



The location is called Simon's Seat (overlooking Wharfedale and Bolton Abbey, in the Yorkshire Dales), Which of course brought to mind Simon Zadra, a great friend of SETI - best known in Number crunching for his work on optimisation, and for founding Lunatics.

He last posted here on 12 August 2007 - three years ago today - and then suddenly stopped posting and dropped out of sight, with no word of explanation. Some people claim to know the story but to be keeping quiet to respect his privacy, others say it's still a complete mystery.

Wherever you are, Simon, here are two more pictures for you, taken in better weather yesterday:

You can check out the locations on Google Maps, or see the wonderful view linked from Google Earth:

This is not just a "claim"--This is entirely true. Some of us who were mods at the time it is not a mystery but we have to respect the confidentiality of the situation. Yes he is missed.

Where's Labbie? I haven't seen him in ages!

Then of course there's Rocky. I never knew him, but I understand he was a blast. RIP Rocky.
