I sure hope not.  Veritas is my lover and her ex still hangs around the boards.  I'd prefer to avoid that awkward situation, even if it's just text.

Agreed with her outstanding posts. Thankfully DeCypher is usually around still.

Veritas was one of the few quality contributors in this forum.  I seldom post here anymore, mostly because the majority of threads are about topics that have been beaten to death, revived, and shot again just for good measure.  I do lurk for the occasional few gems of original insight and, of course, to watch tender nooblings get mercilessly shredded by the resident seasoned debaters.

Debate!? Is that what this place is about?
I thought this was a place to crack a beer and amuse myself when I wanted to sit down for a little while.

Yes that's really in effect correct.  But we play a debate forum on TV,

People like me are the reason she doesn't come here anymore, remember?

Hehe, yeah. It isn't a too bad a show either some times.
ND's got some good taste in posters, the two in the OP have left some excellent writings around here, and so have many others, and together this place has shared some amazing conversations.
Some that may have be meaningful and significant to many more than those involved.

Does anyone else around here think about the idea that the Shroomery might have had just one good shot, and those particular conversations really were the blood sweat and tears of PS&S?
The debates will continue, but it's becoming more and more evident that the old ones in this place and the holders of those excellent conversations are growing tiresome of it here.

These days less and less truly inspiring debate is found in this forum, questions without answers are repeated ad nauseum, and people get tired of the same old mary-go-round.
Yet even as in old age one still finds magic in the same setting sun they've witness their entire life, there is still something to be said for having the same old conversation with someone new, because a sunset is always new to someone.

Part of me feels this forum might wither in the coming decade, but who's to say what youth will bring here. It may be revitalized, it may not, and perhaps all you whippersnappers should take that as a challenge.

Here's to all the awesome people and all the awesome posts, and how full of awe I feel to realize they all keep coming back here to this place that doesn't really exist.
Many posters here have become more than just names and text to me and have become deep characters in this strange part of my life, and let that fact be a reminder of how deeply our subjectivity goes.

I've never met any of you, but many of your are very dear to me.
Cheers.
