You know, as we traverse this digital landscape, we are sometimes lucky to come across certain screen names that are special, a cut above, "all that" and more. C2W? is the third such person that I've felt this way about (in ten years worth of travels), although I rarely interacted with her. She is just one of those people that you ache to have known in real life, even if only marginally, knowing without doubt that your life would have been and could be better for it. And even if you were not a target of the abuse some have inflicted on particular members here, you are most certainly a victim, simply due to her absence here because of it.
I miss her. Alot.
There was a small bit of discussion regarding changing the name of the "Post" button a few days back. And I thought for a moment that it should/could appropriately be renamed "C2W?" Not really feasible I know, but a fitting tribute none the less.
