I noticed the very prolific @TriPolar hasn’t posted at all in November. Weird for a multiple times a day poster.

1. Bienvenidos de nuevo, @Nava!

2. Isn’t @Stranger one of our physicists? And he just hit the odds of a non collapsed quantum state?

3. I miss Opal too.

I just happened upon an older thread and realized that it’s been quite some time since lobohan has posted.

The list of people I miss seeing on the board is getting much too long.

I saw @matt_mcl in Montréal last summer, but I did not know he wasn’t on the boards. I haven’t been here all that much lately.  
Yay @Nava !

Vinyl Turnip was my fave quipster, but it seems he/she never made the transition over here to the new board, alas.

I also wonder about Quasimodem from many years ago. I believe he was diagnosed with dementia/Alzheimers and while he would pop in occasionally post-diagnosis to give us a wave and a ‘hi’, it’s been a long time now between visits.

I remember Quasimodem. Wasn’t he a respiratory therapist, and actually posted a lot more on GB? If that’s who I think he is, it’s doubtful that he’s still alive. He seemed like quite a remarkable person, and so did his wife.

Yeah, I also had some nice interactions with Quasimodem, most not long after I joined the board in 2009. He had dementia and had a blog about his struggle with it, used to post more sparingly with the years and then faded completely. I miss him.

@Johnny_L.A was in touch with him for awhile. Maybe he can let us know when he last heard from him.
