A bit morbid I know, but it feels appropriate to mention here those who are sadly no longer with us to see this modern interpretation of UseNet. Too many to remember all at once but a few who spring to mind straight away:
Smee
Blujuju
Rob Cypher
Jeff A Bucove
Natasha
Hatchet Mama
No doubt more names will come to me as soon as I click Submit Poast. Please feel free to add any more friends (or even enemies) that you remember and miss to this tribute lits.

"Oh, and by the by ... although it is not my particular responsibility
to do so, I do nevertheless apologize for Mr. Leyland, who seems
convinced that anyone who might pass by this doorway to our little
gallery is a child rapist. In a sense, he is much like the ratty kitty
he claims to be in his interminable signature line ... he wanders about
and stops occassionally at the stoop here to spray and defecate, then
moves on and is gone for a few days or so ... no doubt spraying,
defecating and retching up hairballs elsewhere ... then returns to mark
his "territory" again. I realise he is little more than a malodorous
nusiance, but a nuisance nevertheless."

"I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.
And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.
And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."
William Blake.
