Dear friends,

thank you so much for confirming that you received the newsletter! I was a bit late. I did not send any newsletter for 2 months since I started a full-time job.

I hope I will be able to go to the routine now and send it every month

You are a little saint when it comes to your Polish culture and heritage, Jaga. If I knew what my old account was called, I'd remind you since I used to be very active on the forum, especially during the Delphi years. I used to print out all of your articles and still have the ones from that time.

[Drohojowski]

To that end, I noticed Karl and Kaima are still forum-goers. Are Nikifor, Batu, Akulina, the other Carl, and that little bit nerdy American guy who was fanatical about Russia still around ever?

[Jaga]

Our forum is already almost 8 years old, if we take into account the beginning of the website. Akulina was here probably more than 5 years ago the last time. She was probably busy with all the change in Russia. Eric lives in Russia. He comes from time to time here. The other Carl is here. Batu is gone somewhere in Lithuania. He was visiting us more frequently when he lived in Portland with his daughter.
But we have some people who are with us almost since the beginning.
