Well, with 80 years of life experience, he should be able to make up his own mind about whether he wants to date a devotee or not. Crotalus, we’ll know if her brother pops into this thread to let us know the terrible news. ---

There should be a Straight Dope expense fund for this kind of research. The board should at least cover the cost of a coffee and a scone or something if people are willing to go troll hunting. ---

Maybe she’ll log on and tell us that she was there at the appointed time, and **Cinnamon Imp** was a no-show. ---

The 18 service runs every 10mins, you could just have waited for the next one. I’m pretty sure **Cinnamon Imp** waited longer than that at Costa… ---

> [@Cinnamon\_Imp](#): > > Does anyone want anything from Tesco while I’m here? He did it! He did it!!! He did it!!! All Hail Cinammon Imp!!! A brave yeoman, strong and true!!! We bow down before thee! We kneel in awe at the feet of a True Doper, Fighter of Ignorance… For thou hast shown thyself to be a true knight, clad in the Armor of knowlege, unafraid to bravely sally forth unto the world, in search of True Facts with which to banish the darkness of uncertainty from this thread. Thanks for actually doing something so unusual and rare: leaving the keyboard behind, and going out in the field to collect factual evidence! After all the suspicions, speculation, and just rude guesswork that we’ve been doing in several threads about our dear **jaymac** , it’s nice to have some hard data. In the name of all Dopers, big and small, new and old…thanks a lot!
