    Enjoy! (And go Everton!:))

    John Knapp, right? You are welcome to stay, we have lots of
    games (sophisticated and unsophisticated), and also some
    discussion!

    Don't forget the cryptic crossword clue game...

    But yeah, as Dave said, that's one less bot required for next
    season's UPT. Sign him up!

    Yes, welcome back, and please stick around. Were you not in
    the DC area, or am I mixing you up with someone else.

    Those of us remaining here are probably all getting long in
    the tooth (though I suspect I might now be the oldest of the
    regulars, at 66).

    I miss people like John Rose, Phil Beineke, Jim Goloboy, Mark
    V, Paul Crankshaw, Jussi, and Sven, who were always
    interesting to read.

    Red Devil !

    Not sure I remember JK. I am a regular lurker, not so regular contributor
    (I did find through google news a post of mine under an old emails
    address from June 1990), and I'm a bit holder than MH.

    Benny! (ducks...)

    No seriously, he was one the most fun people to argue with. Also creator
    of some unforgettable nicknames: Generic Midgets, Square-passing
    Merchant, Bucktooth (who can only run and shoot), Ginger Twat. I'm sure
    I'm forgetting a bunch.

    I hope that's the Chilean Everton, not the over-rated english one.
