I clearly missed that she had been banned ā€“ rightfully so it sounds like. I figured she had simply stopped posting. Now Iā€™m going to have to go back and look for her banning announcement. ---

I miss Eve. I miss Sampiro and Wang-Ka telling us stories. I miss flatlined and her stories about her BBF and her rescues. I miss seeing Nava. I miss norinew. I miss Giraffe and TVeblen . I miss SwimmingRiddle . I miss Coldfire. Rue\_DeDay, who started the MMMP. Scylla and his stories of events in his life. Fenris and his moderator stories. I miss Skald the Rhymerā€™s hypothetical trips to alternate universe libraries. Every time an old thread is revived, I see names of people whose posts I miss. ---

@chowder. He disappeared several years ago. He was older, and may have had health problems. Iā€™m guessing he died. ā˜¹ ---

This may be too forward of me, but I have instructions for my passing, so someone can let you all know I didnā€™t walk out, but croaked. Eve, yes, I miss Eve. I still have the book she autographed for me. I bought the book and mailed it to her, with money for return postage, so she could put her name in it/ Itā€™s her bio of John Gilbert. Sad ending there. _I miss Skald the Rhymerā€™s hypothetical trips to alternate universe libraries._ **Morgyn** , agree with you there. **Polycarp** is gone, so thereā€™s no return, but I miss him. ---

> [@Johnny\_L.A](#): > > @chowder. He disappeared several years ago. He was older, and may have had health problems. Iā€™m guessing he died. ā˜¹ I was thinking about him just the other day. And his cat, Eccles, whose passing he reported. As I recall, he got another cat, whom **Chowder** didnā€™t like quite as much. Iā€™m guessing that **Chowder** passed too, at some point, and we never heard. Thinking of elderly Dopers, does anybody know about @KlondikeGeoff ?
