ADMIN : Orpin is dead !!!!

[Guest guest]

Oh non !!!! Pas !!

I can't accept it ! Such a nice man ! With such a terrific humour. I

had the privilege to discuss with him very often in private, and each

time, it was, sincerely, a real pleasure. Particularly when we were

exchanging our Yahoo! experiences as moderators :-))

Please, don't be shocked if I put this smiley. I do know that he

would have appreciated it.

Can we be of some help ? Please let us know.

I think I (we all) have suddenly discovered that our ongoing

projects were so insignificant, even if very urgent.

I call all our members to respect a " minute of silence " (sorry, not

sure of the translation) tomorrow Thursday at 12:00 GMT. It means

that you stop every activity and have a thought for , whatever

are your religion, political ideas or nationalities.

Thank you

P.S.: Sorry to use the " admin " header, but it is the only way to draw

your attention on an important fact, which is the least we can say

about 's death.

I was devastated to learn that Orpin died on Monday. I just

received the following email from his UK partner. My heart goes out to

his wife, Angelika and his daughter, Fiona.
