Those you named were your contemporaries, the roster of roffians
is ever changing, always has been. You wouldn't recognize some of
the earliest posters to roff who dropped by the wayside, folks
come and go constantly. Part of it is just the nature of Usenet
newgroups, I mean let's face it participating here is a monumental
waste of time. Which is fine by me, that's part of why I come here,
to waste time when I should be writing, but it's still fundamentally
wasting time. At some point most folks without a lot of time to
waste quit wasting it here. Perfectly normal.

I'm surprised there *is* a roff. Forty! Turn out the lights when you
leave. d;o)

Hell, I'm surprised there's still Usenet newsgroups. They're way
more trouble than they're worth to ISPs and I'm astounded at how
many ISPs still bother with them.
