Does that sound like a long time? I joined in 2002

@Frank Apisa,

There were a couple of also missing people who treated CI so badly.

Some of the comments to CI were stunningly rude and inaccurate.

@glitterbag,

I wonder how I missed them. I think I read almost every thing he posted.

@roger,

He was always cordial and polite with me.

@Region Philbis,

I remember when the New York Times rolled out Abuzz they featured a few members and there was a little profile of CI – he liked to travel!

I do not do Facebook, Reg...but if you encounter him there, why not ask him to stop by and say, "Hello." We miss him. He and I bumped heads a lot, but I think he was one of the best A2K has to offer.

Roger, Bobsal, Glitterbag...

...same with youse. (Hey, I'm from NJ.) If you see him on Facebook, ask him to stop by.

He is such a gentleman. I met him in San Fran with CJ, GeorgeOB1, Roxanne, Cyclo, MerryAndrew, Seagrass and a few others. Very charming man. I can't imagine anyone treating him badly.

I still wear a hat he gave us when he met up with us in NYC. Jonathan was there, pretty sure Thomas was, Bernie and Jane may have been...and a few others.

Good guy. Hope he stops by, although knowing his schedule, he is probably half way round the world some place drinking fancy drinks in foreign bars.

Yes, he was quite the traveller, always on the go.

I've got one there, too.

I've met him in the UK, in the Netherlands, three times in Germany, one time in our home, in his home, in Chicago ...

Wow, you must know him well, then. You're quite the traveller, too.

Oh, Walter, I forgot you were there. My memory is damn near totally gone. I remember meeting you in Bryant Park...where I was stoned to the gills.

Were you at the meet at night at his hotel?

Those A2K hats he had made are great. Very subtle...with all that white. I've gotten more questions about that hat than any other.

No, I got one of the leftovers in Chicago. I remember that he still had some - and gave them away - when we had a meeting here where I live.

His family faced the forced removal and subsequent incarceration of over 125,000 individuals of Asian ancestry, two thirds of whom were American citizens. CI wrote a few posts reguarding these travails in A2K or abuzz a long.tkme ago. It was very interesting, indeed!

Nope. We just met up with CI (and his very regal wife) one time on a trip to San Francisco. There were some others there too (maybe Dianne and Bob, perhaps Osso, I can't recall now). He's a dear of a man.

Scarcely a super-anything.

I remain a travel nerd and I'm always looking for the net great European trip! Especially using frequent flyer points.

I'm one of the 2002 babies, also.
