Live on Riot.im. When we feel like it.              I never met him but his writing style was so folksy that we all felt like we       had. I communicated with him by email. His death was a great loss to the       Commodore community. You have no doubt seen his C64 videos. If not, they're       available on YouTube. As        knowledgeable as he was, he never made me feel stupid and always made sure I       understood the concepts he was presenting. Yup, he was one of the greats.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
