Oh man, I miss too many people to start a thread for each one.
Just off the top of my head: Bustie. And scurv. They are so sharp and so clever and so flat-out FUNNY, and I miss having them around.
On the ladies' side, kmon, who is amazing in all respects. And brainforest, who could out-whimsy and out-clever us all with one brain-hemisphere tied behind her back. (Ew.) More recently, nomi seems to have drifted away, and I miss her.
And Jubilee! I know she's still alive and around but I love her and I miss having her here more.
Lots, lots more. Sorry if I screwed up your thread, Hena. (I'm glad *you* are around because I missed you too.)
Bustie for delightfully upping the nerd content scurvy for upping our collective IQ about 10 points (and that's saying something because I feel we have a collective IQ pretty close to 2SD) elliterate for witticisms and snark (following her on twitter just isn't the same) brainforest for the aforementioned whimsy triangles for her combination of smarts and caring bots! for the awesome
All these are excellent choices. I was about to add that I miss smart-tea when I realized I have a weeks-old email from her that I haven't answered! Ugh, I suck.
let's create threads and talk about people we miss
okay- i have one

That should read *plus* 2SD, but apparently basic maths is verboten in Ben Brown's universe.
Yes. I agree.
I miss Muppy.

none of you said aluv/marie yet you all fail >=(
But Marie is so active in blogland and twitter so I dont have to miss her!!
I miss skanko and jubilee. I always miss jubi but skanko hasn't tweeted in ages!
I miss scurvy, who always sends me emails on birthdays and Christmas, but I never hear from him otherwise :(
SORRY IF I'M AN INTERNET HERMIT
you know who i don't miss? YOU!
... BECAUSE WE TALK ALL THE TIME YAY! =D
@Muppy: 2 standard deviations using 100 as the mean?
Yeah, is there different starting mean when talking about IQ that I'm unaware of?
I miss Emm. She's been on kinda recently, but not often enough.
I also miss Menda. She sometimes posts to the Twitters, but not often enough.
Also, I miss Tiff, who also sometimes posts to Twitter, but never responds to me when I try to talk to her. :(
All these are excellent choices. I was about to add that I miss smart-tea when I realized I have a weeks-old email from her that I haven't answered! Ugh, I suck.
I miss Ashok.
@Muppy: less than stellar.
