    Sorry to hear of his passing. Lloyd was also active on CSMA (cc'ed)


    What a great middle name he had!  Wish he had let us know.

    Excel ... quite excellent!

    He posted to cola 5321 times between Oct 2003 and Jun 2017.
    And he did a good job ripping shitv a new one for years.

    A similar story on CSMA, although looks like he was active on CSMA later
    .. through at least 2020.


    RIP Lloyd

    Agreed. Nice guy online ... and clearly quite a good person IRL.
