What are the chances of these posters returning?

[JSojourner]

No idea.  I doubt anyone knows -- and if they do, I hope they will speak up. Inquiring minds DO want to know.  As to those named...

I always admired and respected PBrunsel, Colin and Ringo.  I would have to do a search on Weasel and Wild Card as I can't quite place them.  Gabu was around when I first came on board and he seemed a pretty decent fellow, but we never interacted.

I never much cared for Phil's politics or his posts, but we got on well.  Naso was a trip and a half and I really enjoyed his hurricane reports.  Not that I'm all that into weather, but I particularly enjoy seeing someone do what THEY love doing.  His 80's fetishes were a gas, too.

What can I say about my old pal, States Rights?  Sometimes, he would make me so angry I could spit...like referring to the Presidents little children as "adorable little pickaninnies" and then feigning innocence as though the term was perfectly acceptable.  OTOH, States could be extremely kind and caring if he knew you were in a bad way.  He was willing to really think some issues through, too.  Though where race and rebellion were concerned, the blinders were certainly on.  I liked him, miss him and kinda half hope he comes back.

DWTL and I crossed swords almost immediately when he insisted that women who have abortions should be executed.  And when he suggested that "life of the mother" was an unacceptable reason for having an abortion. I found such thinking absolutely chilling. But I have to say -- I really DID appreciate his --- errr---what shall we call it? --- enthusiasm for dispatching Jewish Conservative from the forum. That little snot annoyed the hell out of me.

SPC? Probably a very nice young man. But he lost me when he essentially said we could get everything done in this country -- including defense -- through private donations. That goes beyond the usual "road and bridge fairy" thinking to just plain clueless.

Straha and Stark can take a long walk off a short pier.

My favorite posters had better NEVER leave or I will hunt them down and make them listen to Hee Haw soundtracks on a continuous loop.

True. No one asked my opinion. But eh...what the hell?
