For what it's worth, El Reg is still a daily visit for me (I think I've probably done so, for 20 years), and I've been known to fly in and sprinkle drops of Holy Pee (in the comments section -I don't do any authoring of content), from time to time.

I like that it (still, despite the insinuation) is a RedTop in spirit, and I am generally quite impressed by the technical level of its staff.

I do like that you have given Dabbsy and Simon a good home. Thanks for that.

Just one drop in the ocean of data, but I'm glad you guys are around.

Dabbsy's gone, unfortunately. Not sure what went on there, but I suspect he wasn't "serious" enough. He's still at Autosave is for Wimps though:

Aw, that's sad. I enjoyed his SFTW stuff.
