Some posters I miss because we tended to like the same types of gents, so seeing them post about one usually eliminated the need for a 411 post of my own. One poster was another businessman who travelled like me - “something-lucas”, another had the moniker “yankman” I believe. Another was “TheOtherGuy” - I believe he had a meltdown at some point over something posted and *poof* he was gone. JTBrooklyn was another - and now the name that was just in the tip of my tongue is gone for a UK poster who always had the 411 on London gents. 
 

Some posters I miss because their posts were just off the wall - I’m thinking here of Avalon and a few others. I’d be tempted to put Steve Kessler in this category just because his posts were thesis length, not because they were off the wall. 
 

Some other posters I miss are GeminiBear, TrueReview, RickMunro, JuanVancover, and some others I just can’t recall their monikers now. While I miss their contributions here, fortunately I am still in touch outside the forum with some of them.

seems like a majority missed @bigvalboy and @Fin Fang Foom - gotta start reading their posts

Fin Fang Foom was very talented at wordsmithing, I would not be surprised if he were a professional writer. The funniest post he ever did was where he broke down line-by-line a review someone did of Benjamin Nichols on a Key West trip. I have searched and can not find that thread, but it was creatively written and a damn good laugh.

Three more that I have been reminded about that I am missing their posts are Silver Dollar, GAJETEK (Georgia Tech) and there was a lady in Texas that her name was something like a clown or had clown in her name, this goes back about 15 years. She was funny.

Yes, thanks for reminding me of JTBrooklyn, I had forgotten about him and I usually liked his postings. Is he still with us?

I miss @Good Grief 

I met Good Grief in Atlanta about five or six years ago for a few days of fun and frolic....Swinging Richards, BJ Roosters, the Coke Museum, the aquarium, BBQ, Buckhead, Paces Ferry Road (I commented, "gee, that house even has it's own guard station" and GG replied that's the governor's mansion!), Piedmont Park, grits, biscuits and gravy....he arranged a great 2BR airbnb.......

he needed the vacation as his wife had left him for her high-school sweetheart and took his beloved kids with her.....a year or so later, he died, only in his mid 50s......

Yes, I remember. I think you informed us of his passing! Very sad!
