I wasn't here at the beginning...though I was here when the place was still pretty small...when I recognized everyone's name. I haven't posted a lot, compared to many others...I read more than I write. But I've been here long enough to know how much a part of this board's identity Catman is/was (and many of the other's who left, too...) to be hit hard when I read the heading of this thread. I never met him...for that matter, I'm kind of shy, and have never met anyone from this board...though I've brushed close to it several times.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, the movements of late really make me sad.

I guess it's kind of like when I was in high school, it was kind of cool being a sophomore or a junior, and having friends that were seniors. then, when they left, I was sad, because then I was the senior, and I didn't know the underclassmen, and it felt a little lonely without the seniors around.

I'm not sure I'm making much sense. But I feel this loss. Catman, Premex, everyone else that left, I hope you're lurking, and I hope that you miss us as much as we miss you....so you'll come back!
