OT - What happened to what's his/her name ??
Listing this as Off Topic just to cover myself... People have changes in their lifestyles... family, school, jobs, travel, lack of internet access, other hobby interests, etc. I was just pondering, who can you think of who no longer posts here (for whatever reason) that you may miss by there absence?

Missing Person
I miss Bloo!
He hasn't posted since: 03 Jul 2003 13:47. Maybe it's just the holiday or perhaps he is 'gone with the wind'.
I'm going to wait a bit longer and then call out search and rescue and the K-9 squad!
But first... a nap!

Don't worry about Mick, he's quite allright... just devoting his attention to personal interests that are more important than whistles.kevin m. wrote:Mick Woodruff seems to post exceedingly rarely,if at all,these days.
There has also been no new material on his own website for a while now.
I miss his postings too though... I've learned a lot from his advice, and also received a lot of encouragement from him along the way.
Mick always went above and beyond what most people would do to help a struggling beginner, and I owe him my deepest gratitude.
Oh, and even if his playing style might not meet with the approval of some of the more hardcore traditionalists around here... you've got to admit that he's extremely talented, and that there's an inspiring and almost magical quality conveyed through his music.
Regards,
Gary Humphrey

bill "serpent" whedon doesn't post so much anymore now that he's busy with his whistle-making operation...

where are the departed? now,

Not to mention the more than four hundred people who have registered but never made a single post. Where are they? Sometimes the thought crosses my mind wondering if any of these people joined and then something awful happend... serious injury, death, etc.... that prevented them from ever posting. Or that someday if the board stays around, some who are regular posters are eventually going to age and pass on, or some accident will happen. How long will it be before their absense is noted and what happend to them is learned? A day? A week? A year? Sad thought. A tad bit morbid? I guess. Perhaps I just think too much. 
On a brighter note... Happy Chiffiversary Kathy!

Actually I did just think of someone I miss, Wandering Whistler. I liked him a lot. He was always there for the newbies like me, and he had a wealth of experience with many different whistles. He got run out of here by the crabbier types who followed him out the door shortly after he left, those who didn't put up a website with the sheet music for many different tunes like he did.
