I do not really miss mainframes and DB2 and IDMS or even UNIX and Oracle, largely because for my last few years the "work" was mainly spreadsheets and KPIs and staff assessments and impact assessments and anything but actual computer stuff. I quite miss ISPF (which most people have never heard of) and spent my last couple of years at work doing that and only pretending to do the boring stuff. Now I play at doing bits and bobs all day.<br /> <br /> Haven't heard from JonCooper or dyl for years. MATT still looks in very occasionally, but he does mod stuff and probably stuff that isn't obvious. He got married and took a swanky IT job in the US where he lives. Koswix is still about, not often. He runs a business making/selling crafty and hardware type things like door-signs and bell-pulls. milko is an infrequent visitor. He's still big in a firm that handles electronic signage for major sport events (I think). Rendle doesn't visit anymore. He runs his own IT consultancy now and has given up looking for his funny. You can find loads of online stuff with a simple search for Mark Rendle. Manthorp still artfags about, infrequently here. I did post to him recently, with no response. Maybe he no longer gets messages. I wouldn't be surprised to see Ant posting, although he hasn't for ages.<br /> <br /> There now follows a long list of "no idea - haven't heard or seen for a long time". MOHAMED42, Mike, Mikee, Chris Cooper, Woggy, Izziwizzi, Killamarshian, Dr Nick, Racoon, Serg, Rich, paul, The Apprentice, Voltane, PNCOOL, Truffy (MR_BASTARD), Darren, Rowan, LP, Sulkpot, Stoo, funky(ISA)...<br /> <br /> Greg (M00RL0CK) purged all his posts from teh and never returned. He went off, got an education, and now lectures in philosophy. Astonishingly, his bogus wikipedia entry still exists in a paragraph redolent of early teh funnies. I will point you to it if you've missed it.<br /> <br /> Wattsy hasn't posted for ages. I kept in touch a bit because he moved to the small town I grew up in, but no idea what he does now.<br /> <br /> Wayne, no idea but I can 100% guarantee that he is absolutely chewing up the carpet over the imminent release of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.<br /> <br /> The longer I go on, the more names I keep remembering and I know it's too much of a task, but...<br /> <br /> Lucy (X3N0PH0N) popped up here a while back after a long absence. I miss his posts, but he has evidently become even more troubled and reclusive. Which is sad. He hasn't visited for a while.<br /> <br /> Also sad, but in a different way, as you know, Trig got himself in a spot of bother not long ago. <br /> <br /> Yve and Manthorp never got a room (AFAIK) but Yve and Iain are still a happy family (also AFAIK).<br /> <br /> Most importantly, Peter (BOUGHTONP). Still here and still posting. He's the man who pays for the hosting which makes me feel guilty and realise that I should do something about sending him some dosh.<br /> <br /> And, probably teh most prolific poster (if you'll pardon the alliteration) right now is CHYRON (DSMITHHFX). He hales from Toronto, which I believe is the same side of the pond and the border as you.<br /> <br /> Been trying to remember the name of the person who first directed me to teh forum as the Delphi PC Professional thing began to rot on the stem. But I can't. He hasn't posted for many years.<br /> <br /> No doubt milko will wander in while I'm still composing this oversized post and cross with me.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42943.12&return_msg=42943.3" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42943.12"> <span class="rating">+2/2</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="message_page_footer"> <ul> <li class="right_col"><form accept-charset="utf-8" method="get" action="lmessages.php" target="_self"><input type="hidden" name="webtag" id="webtag" class="bhinputtext" value="DEFAULT" dir="ltr" /><input type="hidden" name="msg" id="msg" class="bhinputtext" value="42943.13" dir="ltr" /><input type="submit" name="submit" id="keep_reading" value="Keep reading…" class="button" /></form></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body>
