Lord Ellpus, I still miss you

So, there I was, tagging stuff on the pets and gardens threads - I'm on page 13, going backwards from whatever it was, say page 27 (what's with pets and gardens, they get separate categories now, I would hope - that was an old grouping out of necessity) before I retire for the evening and I see some more threads by Lord Ellpus.

It about kills me to not see him here, live.

Anyone in touch with him? I think he is my favorite a2ker ever, and I've a lot of people I admire. I consider him snuffed by some circumstances and don't give a damn. I want to hear from him or about him, please.

@roger,

An imaginative and entertaining writer, but I heard his activities got him into some bother.

McTag. do tell. He's definitely missed, people's comments above seem to suggest there's a chance he might show up again someday, a consummation devoutly to be wished, unlike, I'm afraid, Timberlandko, also missed, with no possibility of return.

@ossobuco,
I know what you mean.

Also miss him mucho. "Snuffed by circumstances," good phrase.

He seems to become the British "Elvis" - there are sightings everywhere,
however the one and only will remain absent. The last contact address I had,
seems to be out of order.

His absence certainly is a tremendous loss for us - for him it probably it's
all for the best!

@CalamityJane,
Yes, the last contact address I had doesn't work either.

I get these waves of nostalgia when I run across his threads.

Lord Ellpus was the most important person here IMO.

Same for my addresses (thought I'm certain that ours were different as well).

I think, we should respect that he doesn't/didn't want to come back.

I'm curious about your reasons for that statement, chai.

Don't get me wrong. I liked Ellpus a lot & enjoyed his posts & also enjoyed the odd PM exchange, but ...

... I also value lots of other A2K posters, too. Frankly, I'd find it damn near impossible to declare that any one poster here was "the most important"! Different A2Kers are valued for all sorts of different reasons. I have a huge fondness for many posters here.

And if Lord Ellpus chooses not to post here any more, for whatever personal reasons ... well, I respect that, despite missing his posts.

Wherever you are, Lord E ... & whatever is happening in your life right now, I wish you all the very best! Thanks for some fun times! Very Happy
