Goodbye and GodSpeed to Heaven Above, Alex.

I only read XP groups these days. Apologies to non XP groups if this has been
handled.

Those that know me know I am overwhelmed with grief for the last while (I
failed to save a life two saturdays ago). This is someone else's
responsibility.

But I see no mention of our very long term helper's death in these
newsgroups.

Get your act together MVPs.

Thanks in advance for the great work over at the XP General newsgroup
in keeping trolls at Bay. I for one greatly appreciate it.

The moderator line in my normal sig is just a joke. And David is not a
troll.

I was as surprised as David, that there wasn't any thread about Alex in
our group. We will all mourn, remember, and deal with Alex's passing,
and celebrate his life in our own way. Please understand, and let
people grieve in their own manner. Thanks, Dan.

Frankly, who cares what you think about David? Even more frankly, if
you'd learn to do a lot more reading and a lot less writing (and
talking) you might actually learn something.

Talk about annoying...

Although I have never met the man face-to-face, I did have the pleasure of
knowing him from his posts. He was always polite, patient, helpful and,
above all, extremely knowledgeable. We will all miss him and mourn his
passing. My sympathy to his family, peace be with you.
