Both sites have been down for awhile.
I hope he is okay. He has been quite a help to many of us
in this forum.

Re: What happened to srod?
He posted a message a while ago stating that he'll be visiting here less often, so that's probably got something to do with it.
Microsoft Visual Basic only lasted 7 short years: 1991 to 1998.

Didn't know he was gone. I have him on ignore so wouldn't see his posts if he was here.
Best wishes to the PB community. Thank you for the memories.

You must be missing out on a lot of good code.
JACK WEBB: "Coding in C is like sculpting a statue using only sandpaper. You can do it, but the result wouldn't be any better. So why bother? Just use the right tools and get the job done."

He last posted on the 4th of Jan - he's probably on holiday... or still in the pub

Ouch, it's euh, what, the 23rd now? Now that's a good way to start the year, I bet that email he posted on the 4th, he used a mobile to do so!Foz wrote:He last posted on the 4th of Jan - he's probably on holiday... or still in the pub

He was going to code something for Linux, so I guess he hosed his computer.

Is this just a bit of insensitive trolling or do you know something? Because if you're just cracking wise I can tell you that you're going to be upsetting a lot of people for no good reason. Which is it?utopiomania wrote:srod is dead. RIP.
