What happened to T-Mar
In my archival searches, he came up most frequently as a very able contributor. Has he left the board?

i think he is on a leave. you can still PM him but I am not sure when/if he will reply.
he IS a bounty of knowledge and I think there should be some website/page dedicated to him in the same vein as sheldon brown.

I was wondering the same thing. Seemed like, from his posts, not only a very knowledgeable poster but a genuinely nice person, too. Very helpful, always looking to share information. I was afraid to PM him for thinking he might have had a 'break' from the board.

What about rotharpunc and cyclotoine?
They were two of my good friends and I haven't seen much of them for a while.

Yes, I believe you are correct. He's not only an expert, but also simply a great guy, with whom I have exchanged several cordial emails over the years.

What about Scooper? Haven't seen him around for a long while? I assume he is busy with his charity ride?
