Man, of course..would happen with everybody. The point is that one guy let us all know that he was going fishing in Florida, put up a zillion threads about it, full of questions and etc...and suddendly vanishes in thin air...

and in some sort of strange, cybernetic, ethereal way , people grow some form of attachment ( after all you spend some time typing things to and fro ) to the people on the other side, and, where I stand, that type of "attachment", of knowledge, is enough to not simply "forget" such person when same suddendly disappears ......
