Maximus and I spent many hours talking about JW stuff. Did you ever speak with him?
Alan F and I were the best of friends. We met and his daughter played a Rachmaninoff Prelude for me. We probably spent 200 hours on the telephone talking about dub stuff. He introduced me to a lady he knew as a child. Her name is Barbara Anderson. We call her "Barb."
"Onacruise" was introduced to me by Alan F. in around 2001. I called him and basically, he was a psycho who had just lost his religion. He was in so much pain I didn't even have the skills to deal with it, but I hung in there for him. We soon became fast friends and he turned out to be one of the most intelligent people I have ever met.
Hillary Step and I have corresponded. I know who he is, and he might be surprised to know that, but I'm not saying to anyone how I know that!
I respect Narkissos and his work, but I have no personal experience with him. Same with Leolaia, although we are forever joined at the hip with my Berta and Bonnie thread. She always gets all the kudus for merely verifying as fact what I wrote in the first place! I still love her and her work, though.
