underpressure, RIP
I have just received the sad news that underpressure has passed away after a long illness.
Underpressure, whose real name was James Holmes, was a good friend both on and off of the internet. He had a great sense of humor and I remember that when the other James Holmes became internationally infamous, Jim wrote to me saying that had he posted under his real name, the folks on Omni would accuse him of being the shooter. Jim, with over 35,000 FT posts, was a stalwart of FT and especially the Delta Forum. Those of us who knew him personally, and there were quite a few, will miss him greatly. |
Sad news. Jim & his wife generously hosted FTers in their home on several occasions. I will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I'm really sorry to learn this. I've known him by his handle for years. We've lost a member of the family.

Very sad news.
I'll miss him in both good and bad Omni a lot. :( |

I remember him fondly from OMNI and elsewhere on FT. My condolences to his family.

I had noticed a decrease in his posts and wondered what had happened to him. Condolences to the family.

May you join another Ft forum, hoping you didn't suffer much and went in peace. Enjoy your resting place, while keeping an eye on us.
