It seems like forever ago. I miss all the fun we had. Remember Iago and Zazu's Attraction of the Week? And da Old Troll's stories, may he rest in peace. (sigh) I checked out the list. The e-mail address listed for me was back when I still had dial-up, LOL. Guess there are *some* things I don't miss. ;-) -- Kitty (TDC Bashful) remove "whiskers" to e-mail
From: rct on 14 Apr 2010 16:21 Well, somebody Grumpy has to point out that not everyone was all that thrilled about that...stuff, and lots of strong words were used to describe it, and many thought that whole thing should just go get a room and leave the radp to discussion of the parks, which was why it was started. I don't miss it, and it drove away a lot of pretty good Disney experts. rct

But there is a 2005 list from that site still available through archive.org. TDC titles A-L: http://web.archive.org/web/20051123103253/http://members.aol.com/jiromi/ TDC title M-Z: http://web.archive.org/web/20041231001706/members.aol.com/jiromi/index2.html AFAIK, there is no newer list.

Is it your site? :-)) Perhaps it was Rodney. Someone through that out as a TDC title, and I had wanted one for some time, so I laid open claim to it. The Trimodian isn't as ceremonial as it once was (pity), and those who bestowed titles have all but disappeared. Anyway, no objections were posted, so I kept it, although I don't use it much. I really enjoyed those TDC posts of old (and the FDC, too), and I keep hoping that *that magic* would come back. But then, I keep hoping for a return to vigor of the old classic video games newsgroup rec.games.video.classic, which - like RADP and RAD before it - use to get over 100 posts per day, sometimes close to 300 per day on weekends. No, Keane, no flames here, I though you were the one to thank. jt |
