bob, i respectively disagree with you. with the loss of the wugate
archives more than just knowledge contained there in is gone but the
words and thoughts of past members of theforge. many of whom for
whatever reasons are no longer members of theforge. we have lost the
humorous wit of roy wilson. the banter between bowie and roy. the lively
debates between ron reil and frosty and others. we have lost the ups and
the downs of not only theforge itself but of the members. i must admit
that as i write this e-mail i am a bit teared eyed. the wugate archives
represented a snapshot of theforge and the members and the community
that represented. that is lost and there is nothing that will replace
it.
