Why I Won't Be Around For A Long While
If we're getting into touching or meaningful quotes:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Damn...

I know I have not really talked to you much since back in the early days of the VBB, but I will never forget that familiar name, which came with all of the good qualities of a true man. You will be sorely missed my old friend. I may not be religious, but you and your mother will be in my prayers tonight.

I wish her the very best, no matter what happens always be there for her and cherish your time together. This kind of threat is always an eye opener, and I hope it will make you go and hug your family, kiss your spouse and tell them you love them, and tell all your friends how much they mean to you. Because we can never tell when we may not be able to...

Godspeed, man.

You'll be missed.

Best of luck to your mother, to you, and to the rest of your family. I wish your mother to get well as soon as possible and your lives will return to normal.


Farewell for a while Setekh. :(

Y'know, not much will make me cry (barring excruciating pain), but even now I'm finding myself a bit misty-eyed.  You've been no doubt an invaluable member of this community.  Though I never knew you personally, you always seemed like a good, laid-back guy who didn't let much bother him and always sought out a good laugh.  I don't think I once read a post of yours that showed anger of any kind.  You've done a lot for the community, co-founding HLP, and making yourself the local Render Man.  You will be missed...

Damn. This hit me like a bomb... no pun intended on my part. I sincerely hope your mom improves, and that the chemo works for her. Good luck to you and your family, Setekh.

I, for one, am gonna miss you :(

158th on station, ready for escort. Good luck and godspeed pilot.
I'll never forget you - ever. I may only have known you for four months, but they were great ones. The memories you leave behind, of the Array, of Poor Setekh, of Steak (to name  few) wil lways be with us. I feel as if I know you so well, and I'll pray for you. I could quote quite a few people right now and it might seem appropriate, but I don't think it would be. I'll miss you terribly man. Never give up the battle.

I'm sorry Steak, hope ya'll recover. I just was prophesizing from the weather that the day would be sad or terrible, it ends up it is. I hope you'll return to us soon and your family will be all fine and dandy, my sincere condolescences.
 Anyway, steak you're a big pillar here, you support the modders, give us inspiration (with art and words), and humor us (TANG anyone?). I just hope the other pillars are quite strong and the architect was good...

Cheers, :)
