    I think a fitting tribute is to leave as is. AoS policy isn't to remove members who are no longer with us, for whatever reason, so James contributions here will be left as testimony to him for as long as AoS exists.

    I agree.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I wasnt saying remove him, I was suggesting, as in sport when they retire a jersey number so no other player can wear the number a bit like Michael Jordons number for the chicago bulls.

    Sorry... Have I got this right? James has died?

    I was only chatting with him the other week over PM. He said he wasn't very well but didn't go in to any detail.

    Oh gosh...

    That is so sad to hear. I can't believe it.

    I'm all choked up now. Such a sad loss.

    Yes, I'm gutted. We used to be in contact regularly, both via forums and by phone.

On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
