This may sound strange, but there are a whole bunch of us old time KIRO chatters who lost a long time friend. Most of us had never met him, but we felt we really got to know him well thanks to our crazy HTML world. KIRO AM radio used to have a chat that some hosts would join when on air. We would type comments and occasionally they would be read to the listeners.
As time went by, we chatters became too rowdy and finally the chat was discontinued, but along the way, we taught each other about tags, fonts, img's, href's, links and most important, closing tags. We chatters started planning get-togethers at safe public places and once we found that we were none of us dangerous, though some of us, honestly, kinda scary looking, we met often, usually at Christmas time, for great get-togethers. Why even the mayor of the town of Pacific was and still is, part of our group. There's even been a marriage between two of those among us. Many of us still stay connected via the internet through Facebook and other forums because it seems that by sharing our opinions etc, we have made lasting friendships. RIP my friend Dak.
