[QUOTE="Henry, post: 8070107, member: 158"] I am always happy to hear people who have found those oases in time in their lives; for me, it was one particular place I worked where I knew the name of everyone in the building, where I knew seemingly every little private joke or nickname for rooms or memes in the building, and every bit of scuttlebutt that went on. I’m sad when I meet people who have NEVER known that oasis, or yet to find theirs because their careers are just starting. But I’m not sad for it no longer being here, to the contrary it is its finite existence that makes it precious to find. Same with old TSR - would we value so much of what was created had it existed for a half century as it was at that time? If we had seen hundreds of boxed sets of every idea they could produce instead of their best work with the limited time and resources they had at the time? I kind of feel the same way about Nutkinland, the old Dragonsfoot forum, and online places that no longer exist - I celebrate what was because it was able to be. So here’s to the oases in our lives, our Corners (to borrow a term from the Continuum RPG); may we find them for however long we can. [/QUOTE]
