Yes, I remember her so well. We also had another gentleman posting here many, many years ago that reminded me of this situation.

Mach,

I don't think so. This was way before your time here.

I remember Lost Phil. He was another one who kept saying he knew what he was doing and then he got into depression and remained...lost.

You "old-timers" are just enjoying having a thread to gossip and visit in aren't you. Just like the green-room at a talk show.

I'm enjoying being a fly on the wall.

Although if any of you break into the Four Yorkshiremen Monty Pyton script I won't be able to resist chiming in .....

To be honest Andrew we are just as petty as any other poster at times, evident here.
We are a tight knit group, if someone attacks me, I'm pretty sure someone is going to jump ugly, even though I don't need any help in a forum room brawl. And Neither does any other vet here, so I try not to jump to their defense.

CLD really doesn't deserve the heaping he got. Well...to be honest if he's not doing any DB stuff and giving bad advice not sure he should be posting here, but two wrongs don't make a right. Returning rude doesn't accomplish anything.

A lot of the posters being mentioned were posters who we couldn't reach or get through to.

Sad thing is that I think it's a critical time for him to get through to his W. She's being nice and it's a start. He's got a chance IF he does things the right way.

The problem is everyone is trying to get him to look at himself in the mirror. He is afraid to do that because he knows deep down he won't like what he sees. You can't help someone till they admit to themselves that they need the help.
