@Lustig Andrei,
Dlowan comes back once in a while. Calamity came back recently, and stuck around a little. I dearly hope she returns at least once in a while.
A2k is a strange but sometimes wonderful place - to me. I learn a lot from some knowledgeable people, probably should thank them more but I don't like to be too mushy; I love the wit when it happens, I have fun with our sports play and, when I don't get a sport, learn about it sort of by a2k osmosis ever so gradually. Not cricket, as yet. Also have access to some people I care a lot about, some of whom might be surprised.
I'm no fan of arguing over and over and over ad infinitum but that's me and I'm learning to just shut up and avoid that stuff.
Izzy, you're getting to be an oldie!
