So I check into the plist during the day

[Steven Koteff]

Agreed in the sense that his absence is definitely felt, and that the
experience of the plist is markedly different. Though still very much
believe in the place's vitality.

I should also post way more than I do. With some of the higher-level
discourse (especially politics and history), I feel so much respect for you
guys that I often never feel I have enough time to write a post considered
enough that it'd be worth your attention. I always put it off until I have
time to match all your elegance and the sophistication of your thinking.
(Also I generally procrastinate a lot and am always working.)

But really I love just reading what you guys have to say. Feel very much
like a newcomer, and I usually don't start participating in communities
until I feel like I've been a part of them a while, have fully learned the
rules and am accepted by its members (although the bare-bones nature of
this tribe's communication makes it kind of obvious how much at least some
minimal level of participation is a part of the dues; I could stay on here
a decade and nobody'd know it if I don't write anything).




That said, I have been around long enough to really miss Dave's presence
(as a contributor and just as a dude). I really, *really *appreciate all
you guys sharing memories and appreciations--it was moving, and I really
wish I'd had the chance to meet him.
