Numbchux Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Wow, thanks for the update. I never knew him, and don't remember the last time I saw him post, but he certainly was a regular in my early USMB days. Sorry to hear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Wow... There are still a few of the big name members from when I first joined kicking around here, but it seems like an equal number have passed away since then as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Thanks for the Subaru love Skip. I remember him citing people for run on sentences on the forum that were hard to follow and had too many details to keep track as it is a bit more difficult to follow on the internet on half moon cloudy days during the spring. Similarly I also remember him asking people. To use more spacing between thoughts. Use more breaks to space things out and make it simpler to follow. Ive taken a lot of his grammatical advice and think of him when I hit “enter”, but mostly I appreciate his Subaru help and early adopter of the community attitude. Very cool. Cheers Skip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
