Thread Name: How're my friends doin? (Jerry Rasmussen)
Subject: RE: How're my friends doin?
Jerry, I hope you are aware of the change
below the line: members only are permitted to post there,
meaning that for the BS section one has to log in in order to post.

Yes, since Pete Seeger's passing,
the US contingent has been quieter, in more ways than one.

Of course, they get on in years in the UK as well.
Martin Carthy has his 80th birthday coming up, and
just this past weekend he did a live-streamed performance
watched by quantities of us Mudcatters and others.
His voice is sadly diminished but he is as vigorous as ever.

True, Jerry, your original Kitchen Table thread is closed.
I have in the past
posted to your Son of Kitchen Table thread which is not yet closed.

The Mother of All BS Threads, on the other hand,
still has some long-timers active on it; and another place
to look for longtimers is the
Declutter thread in the BS section.
Actually the original MOAB thread got so long that
it wouldn't show up like it was supposed to,
so something new was started.
I think the word is MOAB annex, not Son of MOAB or some such.
We even hear from Little Hawk from time to time.

For example with long-timers,
Gnu had a hard time of it after his mother finally died.
We didn't hear from Gnu for quite a while.
This New Year he has been posting again.
I guess Olddude is okay but it's been a long time since his last post.

And before my gossiping goes from bad to worse,
I shall shut up and send this post.
