He didn't post here a lot, but we will still take this opportunity to mark his passing, as of May 29. RIP Old CM. :(

Bummer. I liked the old coot, even though I know very little about him.

I posted with him on the old MSNBCi Religion Ethics BBS which has now become independent since MSNBCI stopped their bulletin boards. Quite a nice guy. Never seen him get overly uppity in over a decade, and he recently lost his partner which I think contributed to his decline

damnable. he was so kind when I wrote to him, shortly after he joined us, to ask for a hospital to send a batch of hts to.
and still i persist in wondering whether folly must always be our nemesis. edgar pangborn

come gentle night. come loving black browed night
give me my romeo. and when he shall die
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all will be in love with night

He would have been happy over today's SCOTUS ruling.
