Hey West!

[toobfreak]

westwall, this is long overdue.
It has been on my back-burner literally for a couple of years now.
So I figure I better do it now before it is too late.
I wanted to do this by PM, but that door wasn't available probably because you were spammed so much over the years as a mod, so I apologize for going public.

• You were one of the best mods this place ever had. It has never been the same since you stepped down, but I'm glad you still show up and post.
• A couple years ago while we were both on (another forum) you posted a science lecture there about some topic that I not only watched but really enjoyed, but I never got the chance to tell you.
• Geology has always been a growing interest of mine since a kid, particularly what it can tell us about the history of the Earth itself and the life on it. As a boy, a friend of the family gave me their daughter's no longer wanted rock collection (from a school project in a display case) which was actually pretty nice and highly variegated. It had a little of everything. Really made me wonder how rock could be so diversified. You once said you were a geologist and I just wanted to say that though I went in for electricity, space science and electronics, I'm now finally trying to devote more time to studying geology. I wish I were 40 years younger and had time to really go out and study rocks in the field--- really fascinating stuff.
• You are one of the very FEW people here on this forum whom I read and pay attention to every post you make that I come across! You are appreciated here.

That is all. Thanks. Carry on.

No worries, and thank you.

Hear! Hear! He holds a special place in my heart and mind, too. He's a leader, fearless, and smart. And numero uno as a former mod.

You are, aren't you.
Little ***** you are!

The sad thing about okfine is that he is neither OK, nor fine.
Like many others, I just finally put him on IGGY months back to save my sanity.

 

[yidnar]

Next you'll ask him for a go around.

That's what I said and now you join them.

I gotta agree with the OP. WasteWall is an expert on any subject you can think of, and several that nobody has ever thought of. If you don't believe it, just ask him. Better yet just wait a few minutes, he'll tell you.

All the best of the recent ones have stepped aside, for the same reason.

Geology is tremendously interesting...Wish I had been wise enough to be more interested in it when I was a kid.....Fun fact: the one dedicated scientist that was sent to the moon was a geologist - Harrison Schmitt.

Here's an article I recently saw, that would be fun to hear his take on:

Geologists Extract the Largest Sample Ever from the Earth’s Mantle

The deepest extract from the middle layer of the Earth offers a wonderland of insights.

[okfine]

Yup, you're a jealous little ***** alright!

Well, you're not denying it. You and tooby. Hah Hah Ha!

 

[BULLDOG]

You seem.... jealous.

Jealous? Nope, more like derisive.

 

[westwall]

Well, you're not denying it. You and tooby. Hah Hah Ha!

Deny what? That you are a jealous little *****?

Honey...we ALL know that!

 

[westwall]

Jealous? Nope, more like derisive.

Yeah....you're jealous

 

[okfine]

Deny what? That you are a jealous little *****?

Honey...we ALL know that!

Hah! That is some weird shit. toobfreak publicly sends you a buttsniffing love letter and you call me a jealous *****?

 

[westwall]

Hah! That is some weird shit. toobfreak publicly sends you a buttsniffing love letter and you call me a jealous *****?

Well, yeah. There's nothing worse than a ****** scorned!

Maybe if you weren't such a jealous, conniving *****, your homey's would like you more?

 

[okfine]

You should just be honest and get out of your closet.

Who's in the closet?

You're the whiney ***** complaining about getting no love.
