Someone posted here in recent years about Dan. He was then in his 80s and
wasn’t really online anymore. His anecdotes and his knowledge are missed,
and it’s great that they’re on the record.

I’ve thought the same of posts from Counselor Ross, who fortunately still
checks in.

I only got to one of those gatherings, at the old Firefly’s in Framingham,
and I enjoyed it.
