Thank you. Yeah, we were friends a long time ago. SHe hooked me up with the (original) NYC TubaChristmas, and came up here…with no tuba…but she tried mine out. So I’ll always have the memory of her lips on my mouthpiece.

No, engineer\_comp\_geek said he can’t merge accounts. Only an administrator can do that and he’s not one.

Yes, that’s possible. But it’s not possible to combine the two accounts.

Unrelated to **Super Kapowzler** , has anybody seen or heard from **Sunspace** lately?

Back in January, there was a similar thread here about posters you miss or wonder whatever happened to. I mentioned Super Kapowzler as well. Out of the blue, TubaDiva sent me a PM about him. She wrote:

Sure wish she were here.

Thanks, **needscoffee**. **Sunspace** and I are friends IRL, though I haven’t seen him in ages (he lives in Ontario, I live in Alberta). Maybe it’s time to give him a call, and make sure that he’s okay.

@Leaffan posted back in August that he just couldn’t take the constant Trumpiness of the boards. I hope he will come back after the election.

I sent him a message asking how he’s doing, but it was via the pm feature, since I don’t have his e-mail. Don’t know if he got it or not.

Didn’t he stay through some troll targeting him as a pedo or something but it’s the Trumpiness that he couldn’t stand? Miss the guy and his Maple Leafs obsession, hope he does come back.

Hope they tracked down that troll too, that was pretty disgusting.

Here’s the thread.

> [@As a Canadian, I can't Trump anymore](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/as-a-canadian-i-cant-trump-anymore/918168):
>
> I can’t. This post office stuff is just making me want to jump off the cliff. I’ve tried to ignore all of it, but it’s impossible. I’d like to say that I have no dog in this fight, but I do. He’s imposing tarrifs on Canadian aluminum due to security issues? The man is off his fucking rocker, or as Ontario’s Premiere has stated, the cheese has slipped off the cracker. (That wasn’t directed to Trump, but still a memorable quote.) So, I’m still getting used to this new place. And, yeah, this is …

I think the SDMB folks managed to block the troll some time ago.

P2P - Pay To Post made a lot of really good posters leave. She was one of our Trek Dopers that added a lot of fun to our discussions.
