I know I"m overly sensitive on this point. The birthday threads katlaughing used to post bugged me.
I know Brett's ok, because he's a friend on Facebook. Other people don't know. If this sort of stuff doesn't bother you, ignore me. I think he and Ebbie talked a lot, and hung out in the same threads, so I understand wanting to know "whateverhappenedto".

I figure someone will eventually close the thread, or Brett will post to it, or it'll resolve in some fashion.

"Many times" - yeah, Don, at least two that I can recall.
These days, I tend to notice things that bother me more than inspire me. Maybe because that's where the focus is these days, or maybe It's only my crabbiness. You get one guy calling the place a "debate forum", and you realize you've been sucked into looking for stuff to argue with.

I will now butt out, but I'll message Brett, and tell him there's a thread...
