Whatever will the Homeless Doomzies Do? Will the Duct Tape open a new shelter for them? Doesn't much matter. There are thousands of caves on the net for such silly marooooons. http://pub5.ezboard.com/fyourdontimebomb2000.showMessage?topicID=28860.topic

Poor Things. The "farewells" are so painful to read. So Funny for those so lost. Even Your-done&Toasty "expressed surprise"? Believe that and you can join them in their delusional guess work.

>
Mr Yourdon has expressed surprise at the closing of it..

And with all due respect; you have "skirted" the reason for it's closing. Just saying "That it is dying"!

Now please do give the reason WHY it is closing. Is it closing because you can find no help? Is it closing because because the SYOPS wish for it to?

My Dear Cascadians;

I still do not the WHY of the closing of TB2000.

I do not expect much; but being around BT2000 for three years. I do EXPECT to hear the reason(s) why it is closing!

No where have I read that ezboard is "killing" off TB2000. When it moves it's servers! I only read that they will be off line for a day while they install in a new location.

I find it rather remarkable! The middle east is with-in days of an all out regeional war! A war which will drag the United States into it before it gets really started...And unknown PTB are trying to kill off the only real "central' repository of developing news on the net!

So since youu are the latest to pronounce this forum DEAD...I ask "WHY"! WHY" what is the reason?

"As for me...I shall finish the Game...And it ain't over yet"!

Our Dear Shakey,

If you only knew how much we are thinking of you today!
We are totally sleep-deprived but have only a few days between jobs so are finally doing your Stone Flush. Actually 4 days of solo water fast followed by the 4 days of Stone Flush, on Day 2 (the hardest :-) of the water fast :)
It's been amazing: every job the last year, families have plied us with medical horror stories of their various stone disasters. We've never had kidney or gall stone problems ourselves, but feel something is sending us a message to do some preventatives!
Previously when we intended to do the Flush, something always interfered. We're determined now, earthquake or whatever (Lord, please don't test this determination; it's hard enough).

This Forum is being closed because its founder, Ed Yourdon, has expressed that desire, and we have always strived to be faithful to his wishes.

Sad. But I saw it coming a while ago (hence the archiving). Thanks A&L for all the work. Good luck in the future.

OBO,
I post at bombshelter under the same name that I use here,and it is NOT my global name. I do have a global account, but not under the name that I use here. I don't know it that makes a difference or not.

Re: This wonderful unique vibrant Forum will Close
I sit here trying not to cry. I feel that I have "friends" here, not to be able to click on TB2000 and
quickly catch up on what's been happening, will sure leave an empty spot in my days. First thing in the morning, last thing at night, I check in.
I lurked way back when, for about 2 1/2 years, and I like many of you, learned a great deal. Each one of you has brought a smile to my heart... now a tear to my eyes.
May you each one, know how dear you are to me, may your days be filled with safety, because I too, know we are getting ready for something big to hit us.
Maybe the May 2 date will bring something that cause us
to shake our heads in wonder. Get prepared, stay prepared and keep telling others what is ahead.
The very best to you all, and and thanks to others who
provided us a forum in which to learn. I will always think of you all and will remember you all in my prayers...

Ashton and Leska,

It is difficult to see the passing of something that has been a source of so much help and support. Yet such is the case with all things here, change is after all the only constant among us mere mortals.

I want to say a personal thank you to the both of you, and to all who have contributed so much to the making of TB2K through the years. I will miss it, and those who for various reasons have moved onward to other places.

For a short while longer my own shingle is hung at BombShelter, the URL there is pub57.ezboard.com/ftbz3lfrm 1 for any who are unaware of it. But I must of need depart there within the forseeable future, to answer other callings and deal with other responsibilities on the continuing journey toward the future.

My regards to all who have been a part of this journey so far, and best wishes for the times to come,

Lee
