He was killed in a tragic "Blivet" accident according to his very rich ex partner that had a life insurance policy on him.

BC was pretty cool too.

And to the OP, there was someone on here when I started called "qwerty". I found their posts to be very helpful. I even emailed them once to see how they are doing, but never heard back.

And whatever happened to "Army"? That guy was the shiznit.

Sorry Tom, my comment was a poorly implemented joke. Clearly, I need to slow down and read the previous posts a little.

Well I thought it was funny - there's no like button on this forum (which has advantages and disadvantages)...

That would be another way to do away with the OD problem.

Some of these names date way, way back to the OD closure and exodus to the other site. I think of them as the KirkVining clan.

Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?
He got an ice pick
That made his ears burn

Whatever happened to dear old Lenny?
The great Elmyra,
And Sancho Panza?

Whatever happened to the heroes?
