Welcome back! Sometimes I have to peace out for a while, but I usually come back. Seems like every time I do, the place is a little better. ---

> [@Spice\_Weasel](#): > > Seems like every time I do, the place is a little better. Funny, I’ve noticed the exact same thing 🙂. I was browsing an old thread the other day and realised I hadn’t seen @Bryan_Ekers posting recently, which is a shame. ETA: I see now he has posted several times this year. Maybe just not as frequently as in the past. Glad you’re still around! ---

@Schnitte hasn’t been around since March, but he told me he was starting a new job, so maybe he’s been busy. ---

It’s nice to be mentioned in this context. Indeed I haven’t been around in a while, but your post motivates me to become more active again! ---

@SentientMeat was a fine debater who I’d like to see return. Last I heard, he was a new father (I think), and left to spend time being a dad. Kid’s probably on Social Security by now. 😆 Perhaps @Mangetout knows his whereabouts. ---

That was a name from the past. He’s been gone since 2009. Here is the final bit of his final post: > [@How I explain my religious experiences (long Opening Post)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-i-explain-my-religious-experiences-long-opening-post/517297/134): > > To be honest, that’s all I ever wanted here.

There are a lot from the Long Ago Time that I miss. @Tygr , @LindyHopper, @dantheman, @TPWombat, @Watermelon_Man, @Crunchy_Frog, @mrblue92 … there are probably a lot more but these are the ones that immediately to mind. There are a lot of people from then that I do still keep in touch with, and far more that are gone than I would have wished. But I often find myself wondering how these old posters/friends are doing. ---

CrunchyFrog and I quit smoking in the same thread about 23 years ago. I stuck to it - I’m not sure if he did. I’m wondering if I’m the last of the OG B.A.D.'s. PsyCat, Demo, woodstockbirdybird, Snooooopy, Rasa, zyzzyva, sonia, Kyla, all the others I’m missing? ---

Rasa, at the very least, is on LJ. She’s doing pretty good. The rest, I haven’t kept up with. ---

I’ve been resisting Facebook for years. That has caused a bit of missed communications as everyone in my family is on that stupid site but me. I get second hand news about my daughter from my mom on the phone. It’s like the 20th century over here for me. ---

> [@EinsteinsHund](#): > > He had a deep knowledge of all things Biblical which I admired him for, but he was just too abrasive in the end for this board. Besides other stuff, he got caught citing himself. He wrote and edited a blog, which he then cited to prove his so called “deep knowledge of all things Biblical”. Mind you he did know a fair bit. But citing yourself to win an argument is not kosher. ---
