Old timers, since you are gone now , why do you keep coming back to ...

*That's* what Jace meant about "no old-timers". I always use that term -- I've been away from Oprano for a number of months. I only heard about the grand schism.

One of the most useful things anyone in this business ever told me is, everyone is always a newbie. The business morphs so often, no one can claim veteran status in any real way -- in the words of Heraclitus (used to work with Xpics), all is flux. That said, I wouldn't have made a dime without Nick and Serge and a few of the other folk around here. They helped me even when I didn't realize they were helping me (kinda like a Zen Master).

And if I'd listened to them, I wouldn't have had my ex-business partner steal half my money either, so a word to the wise ... listen to the words of the wise.

And I wanna be gonzo when I grow up.
