Inactive audio members that you miss


Do you ever think about former Audiogon members that provided some degree of satisfaction whenever you read one of their posts, but seem no longer active?

I, for one, really miss Cornfedboy. I thought his posts were hysterical, and they tended to put us all in the proper light: Crazy but happy. Then he signed off when he said that he was going to be doing consulting for Audiogon.

Then there is Sean. I thought his posts were very informative and I learned a lot from him. Then came the dispute with Audiogon, etc, and we haven't heard from Sean for a while. I think that's our loss.

And finally, Lugnut. Patrick sold me an entire box of LP's when I was starting a vinyl collection for the first time. He sold it to me for a song, and I think he took care of the shipping of this very heavy box. A year or two later I read on Audiogon that he had died. Tragic.

Do you have other Audiogon members who you enjoyed reading posts that, for some reason or another, are now silent?

Also ASA was a very informed poster. I saw one of his posts on here a few weeks ago, that was the first one in years.
I wonder if anyone knew Inrit (Rob Trankley) or had the pleasure of dealing with him. Over the years, he bought and sold a lot of stuff on a'gon and unfortunately passed away about a year ago.

I don't know how much he posted on these forums but for about 7 years we were audio internet pen pals and became great friends. Over the years, he had acquired so much audio gear that I always valued his opinion whenever I was considering making an audio purchase. We also traded audio gear as well. Definitely missed by many.

I miss some those already mentioned more, but, Carl used to really stir the pot around here.
I still email back and forth with Carl, he sends me photos, seems that's become a new hobby for him.
