Yes it had appeared that "carertaker" Al had simply deleted all his postings and intended to just disappear. But one day last week while trying to find my very first posting to rebut the insinuation that he had made that I was only here to promote the Friday Chat Room and I stumbled on one of his postings that he obviously has so far missed. It is his "testforum" posting dated 24 sept 2002 in reply to the first posting by "restless" on the subject:-"pic test". In some trepidation and while looking warily over my shoulder I clicked the "send e-mail" icon whereupon I was rewarded with the information that the email address for TheWatchman is:
iroczpost@yahoo.com. Think about it and it might tell you something although I had been led to believe that his more likely e-mail address would have been
mysogenist@yahoo.com
Anyway and despite having been one of his victims I did not personally get too upset previously by his postings so yes I'm with BillW and "brink". The Watchman should most certainly resume his postings and thereby add some spice to our lives again!!
Finally a small reminder that there is a wealth of links to Lightfoot web sites in my "webring" at:-
