Please thank Bill Spight

Post by Joaz Banbeck »

Bill Spight, the most 'liked' member of this forum, and most prolific contributor, has chosen to withdraw from most public life.
He hasn't posted on this forum since mid-August, and does not answer emails or phone calls from any members.
He is alive, but is rarely seen by his neighbors.

I believe that he does not know how much he is appreciated here, and might change if he knew.

If you liked his posts, please tell him.

The only way to contact him is through old-fashioned mail, at 729 55th St, Oakland, CA 94609.
Any form of letter or card would be great.

Bill celebrates the Jewish holidays, and Hanukkah is a week away. If you happen to know the proper forms/customs,
a 'Happy Hanukkah' greeting would be good.

I enjoyed his review of a Guo Bailing game. We should review Old Chinese games more.

I've always thought that it's a privilege far beyond what I deserve to have the expertise of Bill Spight on the forum (and that of all experts on this forum).
