I am pretty sure Tiornu didn't make one of the early board changes. Maybe the Yuku-ization? Tim Hanna is another one. Also... Dirk Mothaar?
Anyone have any contact with any of them? Or, for that matter, anyone who hasn't made the most recent switch?
Perhaps we should start a list of MIA Members who have fallen overboard over the years what with all the various moves and such. Hopefully somebody here knows the MIA Members in real life and can tell them where to find us.
I'll add to the list below and make a note of updates based on post in this thread.
MIA Members Dirk Mothaar - Rejoined Evil Economist - Rejoined! John Olsen - Rejoined! Kdahm - Rejoined!
Mike Garrity pandion - Rejoined!
Tim Hanna
Tiornu

Looking for Mike Garrity: he had some decent fiction on the previous incarnation, and have been trying to find him so he can join us here.
The difference between diplomacy and war is this: Diplomacy is the art of telling someone to go to hell so elegantly that they pack for the trip.
War is bringing hell down on that someone.
Thanks to the team for reviving the board - managed to find you guys again this morning. Look forward to catch up on whatever I've been missing out on over the past few weeks

Collected half-a-dozen plot notions and ideas for 'side-quests', have several half-written tales, but nothing fit to post...
I'll re-post 'Murphy' and 'Of Filters & Firewalls...'
Please Nik, repost all you can! Do you have that “school bus abducted by UFO” story still?
I stumbled on a link to the new site about a week ago and am happy to be able to rejoin!
Spent two weeks in October touring CW battlefields in Virgina and Maryland/Pennsylvania. Harper's Ferry was quaint!
Also put in some hours at Udvar-Hazy before flying home. Never thought that I would get to see the complete Enola Gay!
Best wishes for Xmas and 2023 to equally old friends and opponents!
