**FormerMarineGuy.** He was a “swinger” and he and his wife would have sex orgies with other people. He just vanished without a trace. I wonder if he died? ---

I wonder if Lobstermobster did, by the same token. I mean it’s steady posting, steady posting, steady posting…and then just stops suddenly and never returns. ---

I keep thinking of others. I haven’t seen **freakalette** (I don’t think I spelled that right) for a while. I sometimes confuse her name with my own in one of those, “Wait, I don’t remember posting in this thread” kind of moments. **Mouse Maven** also seemed to drop off the face of the earth. I’ve often wondered if she ended up finding another lab position somewhere. ---

Where did Khadaji go? He never posted much of substance, but he posted regularly. ---

**Fishbicycle**. A couple of years ago, he just stopped. I can’t remember exactly when, but it may have been around membership renewal time and he could have decided not to re-up. Anyway, threads in the Cafe about music haven’t been the same since. ---

Probably not, but I found their using this board as a recruiting ground annoying – and that was before I became a mod. > [@Robot\_Arm](#): > > No word from **Geobabe** or **andygirl** in ages; I hope they’re both well. **Geobabe** and **UncleBill** came to a Philly Dopefest in April, with the twins – they’re all doing well.
