          Back in the old days of Usenet, on RMMPM, he was SUCH a son of a bitch! He certainly never held back his opinions, to be sure. Frankly, I was, at first, a bit intimidated.

          "Who needs this abuse?" I thought.

          Well...there you go.

              Click on Klaus' icon, let his screen come up and you'll see some dots in the upper right of the screen. Click on those and you get a drop down menu, one of which is a chat button. Click on and type you your PM. Click paper airplane icon to send.

                Actually, I saw your copy before you deleted it, thought that you may delete it, and quickly made a copy. So, thanks 🙂

                If you want to send me a PM, you should PM me like any other forum member. I just sent you a PM.

                          The thing some people never figured out about Larry is that they were just mirror images of him. They never let it sink in that this is the internet. You are not forced to engage with anyone, your argument participation is strictly voluntary. They were every bit as determined to beat him as he was them.

                          We used to have an ignore feature. More people should have used it.

                              I get tickled at both Klaus and radu poor-mouthing their English skills. It's the only language I know (except a few curse words) and both of them are much better at it than I.

                                  I messaged a bunch of people on FB (via messenger) about Larry's passing. David Burton, KB and some others.

                                  A few have acknowledged (Diva Deb and @sue ). I don't know if they'll pop in here.

                                  And @Tom-K so good to see you here.

                                        Larry was one-of-a kind. Although I didn't always agree with him I have to give him credit for being blunt, honest, and not giving an EFF about what others thought about him. I miss his posts on Piano World, the ones that were piano-related. His combative nature was in full display on the Coffee Room there. He didn't let up at all in this forum. RIP Larry..........I imagine you're arguing with God right now!

                                          Larry was one-of-a kind. Although I didn't always agree with him I have to give him credit for being blunt, honest, and not giving an EFF about what others thought about him. I miss his posts on Piano World, the ones that were piano-related. His combative nature was in full display on the Coffee Room there. He didn't let up at all in this forum. RIP Larry..........I imagine you're arguing with God right now!

                                          And God would probably block him.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
