I sure do. Some of my favorites from that year I've forgotten their nic's. Many have gone onto greener pastures (heaven) and so many I've lost track of.

Bigun was one of my fav's, he and I worked several campaigns together back in the '92 - '94 days and didn't know each other despite working the same campaigns.

Another of my fav's I can't remember his nic, other than it started with a "g", had a military refernce about it and he was from Texas also. When he was up in the Chicagoland area back around 1998 I picked him up at his hotel and we went out for dinner in Oakbrook, IL. Don't remember what I did while driving that scared the sh*t out of him (I had a 1996 Jeep Cherokee High Output w/Nitrous) but I think his fingerprints are still on the dashboard, ROFL!

I remember Badeye and Tall Texan. I don't remember RedBloodedAmerican.

Back then at least the arguing remained civil. Well, civil compared to what goes on here today.

I was very much an idealogue and stuck to my guns. I'm still that way today, except I tend to listen more now than I did 23 years ago.

The biggest "fight" I was in back then were during the GW Bush approvals of stem cell research. I was very, VERY passionately against stem cell research (and I still am) that used aborted children, despite the potential that I'd be a huge beneficiary of it and the "promise" of it fixing spinal cord injuries such as the one I have.

I wrote opinion essay after opinion essay on that topic, like I have none other since here on FR.

And the Impeach Clinton threads on here were LEGENDARY. Those were good days. I hope this forum can get back to those. So many on here are falling for the 'divide and conquer" bullshit from the media and white house.
