RHC: Thank you Graham for posting this...

Things have not been the same since Robert dropped off the forum when he got bad. May he rest in peace.

I'm pretty sure Robert's not one to "rest". He's more than likely reconfiguring a heavenly server to accept "PrayPal" and gearing up for his first 100 mile ride. My condolences, thoughts, and prayers go out to Robert's family and friends.

Sad to hear, even though we knew it was coming. I thought of him several times over past few months since he dropped off Usenet. Thanks for passing this on.

I'll post my impressions

It's too bad he passed away however his legacy here is spending most of the time driving people away which he did very well, he slammed the entire security industry to push product and in a few cases tried to go real-life on those he disagreed with (including me). Had he been civil providing security advice and not back stab everyone he WOULD be missed.

You may all resume your gushing praises

Damn I love to read from you !! ;-)))))

It was not very nice of him to slam Al Colombo from SSI Magazine either.

Shoot I just realized now we'll never know the real explanation behind that old "testimonial"

I'm sure Al doesn't hold any grudges. I know Robert tried his best to make amends before the end. I think that speaks volumes. And with this, I hope I've not stepped over into "gushing praises" territory. I certainly wouldn't want to offend our resident curmudgeons.

Yup, now he can practice his obsession and all important

"bottom posting"

RIP RLB

I suppose whether he top or bottom posts depends on where he went....

You would have to ask him. It was all important to posting.

Now he is jockying for position.

Wow, sad to hear. He was a tough cracker to break. We're all just trying to make a living, Robert was no exception. R.I.P. Buddy

TRULY

saddened to hear about this. Robert gave me great advice on stuff here when I first came on in January.

*sigh*... :-L
