Iain Smith is our resident 'grim reaper'. Seems to jump in on all the illness / death related stories. Did the same on the old R2 boards & chatrooms too! _________________ Lord Evan Elpuss, Your ideal job is a Lumberjack. |

I've recently discovered he does it on a sci-fi forum I visit too. As he's not announced this news over there or here, I can only worry about his health... |
