No way! General discussion sometimes turns into a massive argument, but it's people arguing over serious things, usually.
I'd take that over "ooooh, Nicky! In long socks!" But horses for courses. That's why we have sub-forums, after all.

I can't keep up with the posters that have an intellect above that of a common house plant. I think it's best I stick to a subforum where most of the posters are saying things like "Ooh! REECHEY FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE!!!1!!11!" or posting emoticon hearts. It's more fun that way anyway.

I think this is the last year I'll feel the need to mark the day. Not that I sit in a dark room with a vodka all day in tribute, just more in terms of how I think about it. With the JFPL album, and the legal stuff the family did last year, it feels like a kind of closure to me. I'm definitely not the only one around here with an ongoing affection for Richey that isn't going to go away, and I prefer that feeling to remembering his disappearance or any of that stuff.
Raise a glass to Mr Richard Edwards, people.

I've obviously thought more about Richey today than usually. I feel sad for his family today. I hope he's happy where ever he might be.

I hate that the number of years I've been alive represents how many yeah Richey has been missing. He went missing four days after I was born, I find that quite upsetting. Richey, I hope that you are happy, wherever you are.
