Maybe it's just me getting older, but I suggest a new forum be opened where members can search for lost friends; those that for whatever reason you've lost contact with & haven't got a clue how to find them. A post like that in SH&T wouldn't get much exposure, & posting in bonfire would see it buried in a day or two, three at most.
Please consider giving us nostalgic old farts a dedicated place we can use to find our old lost friends! Even though I promised myself I'd never volunteer to do it again after 8 years on a busy board, I will consider moderating THAT FORUM ONLY if it will influence the decision to open said forum.
