Goodgood.
 
It sucks when long-time contributors just stop. Not drift away, just
stop. Apparently they don't even switch to Facebook like the rest of us
compulsives do.
 
Next thing you know even Timo Salmi will disappear :-(

Harry made it clear when he stopped posting: failing to killfile
Rod Speed ruined the group. He must lurk since he will pop
up every once in a while. If he is lurking: please forgive
and come back Harry.

Prehaps I was too subtle. Soul Surgeon, Full Metal Grotus and
Semi-Detached (and maybe others) were all personas of the same
physical person. I'm reasonably certain that Beaver Fever is the
latest persona in that distinguished lineage. (It's my super power.
Damn! Why couldn't it be flying or x-ray vision or picking good
stocks?)

"Leigh" kind of dropped out of the group about the same time that I
posted about the remarkable similarities between her posts and those
of "Roger". One or the other was clearly a sock puppet.

A top poster? Well then he's dead to me either way! ;-)

What was the name of the former member who regularly posted about her
"Augean Stables" home cleaning/organizing project? Melody? I can't
remember for sure and I don't feel like dredging the archives to find
it. Anyway, another poster confirmed her death some time ago.

Email correspondence in Feb, '14 and he has posted here since,
IIRC.
