Arwen, Ama, and Leelee, it is so great to see you guys are still active on this site! (Despite your never having talked to me, Arwen, I do believe that I've seen your name floating around the planet at the height of my activity here). Thanks for the link to the I REMEMBER thread. I have looked at it (you are so sweet, as always, Leelee! I am guilt-ridden for not spending more time here) and will answer it shortly.

I am still mourning for Grondy. What a sad thing to come back to... But I suppose he would be comforted to see that his old friends have not abandoned the site he so loved, even to his last days. This thread is one of partings and reunions, I feel. 

I only knew Grondmaster from reading his posts, which seemed to pop up from time to time (first few months of my first log in).  It was only those few months later that I realised he had passed away, and only then because of the wonderful things the Elders of PT constantly said about him.  Everything I've read from him is informative, full of love and soul and entertaining.  He truly must have been a great person.
