Didn't read this thread but I will. Saw SRS's news on Facebook and tried to log into Mudcat... a number of times to no avail. I assume it's traffic overload regarding this tragic news.

I always relied on him to answer damn near any question. He was a cool guy, too. When he opened up, his sense of humour was well appreciated. I certainly will miss him. RIP and thanks, JiK. Yer one a the good ones.
