Posted by blackhawk It's been almost 10 years but I remember WySiWyG posts here. He liked RR bridges and I enjoyed his images of them. He was intelligence and a good UER member. I think of him from time to time. WySiWyG's UER profile: http://www.uer.ca/...asp?posterid=14343 I think he earned the right to FM while living but never received it. I've done something unusual, I've put him up for FM... Please jump him if you wish. http://www.uer.ca/...ec1&posterid=14343 |
