For the record, the first LWer I ever met was STU. He came into Orlando for MegaCon a few years ago and we met for dinner and lots of conversation.
The of course there was the trip to Boston for (I guess it was actually the last) Wizard World Boston. Lots of great memories of that one. So many fun people to hang out with! Quis was a magnificent host and guide for that weekend.
The one poster I haven't met which should have been the easiest is Future, since we are both residents of O-town. At least we were, not sure if he's back here since finishing up school or if he has moved on to greener pastures. Either way, I think it's way past time that he and I managed to get together.
Future! Where the heck are you son!

Yeah, G. Stallion was an alt ID of someone who himself was an alt ID. Picard's Sexy Grandson was an alt ID of a real poster who once said he resembled Captain Jean-Luc Picard's sexy grandson. Dial H for HOMO was actually a real person from the DC boards, although he had a different name there and I don't think he ever actually posted on LW.

That was fun. I still have a fork from our dinner at Bahama Breeze that night -- I got dessert to go and they didn't have any more plastic forks, so they gave me a real one to take with me.
At Comic-Con, I suggested MegaCon as a possible future meet-up site. It's one of the larger and more fun cons I've been to.

Gods, Cobie -- what a freakin' massive undertaking! Major kudos! I'm shocked and amazed at how many obscure members (and alt IDs) were mentioned, including such luminaries as G. Stallion, Picard's Sexy Grandson, and Dial H for HOMO. It was also a major trip down memory lane to reminisce about the halcyon days of the Phineas B. Fuddle board -- as well as all the historical real-life first-time team-ups.
I'm so glad you finally got around to reading it! When I finished, I knew it might take a few years for people to read through it and see the eras that really meant a lot to them and how finely detailed the history is. I knew you'd particularly love the Super-Holograms, the eboard and the Phineas Board stuff, so its so cool you've finally checked it out!
Check out the early Legion World stuff too--you'll get a kick out of that as well!

You know, I don't think I ever took the time to read the whole thing straight through. Cobie... I have to say I got a bit choked up, not only at the scope of your dedication and vision, but at my part in the story... so many great memories.
Thanks, pal.
