On behalf of all past, present and future residents of the
Tolkien newsgroups, I wish to invite you to the AFT/RABT reunion party
to be held here from December 31-January 2 (in order to ensure that we
include all time zones.)
Whether you are regular, a lurker or just visited the newsgroups
for a few days, you are invited to return on any of those three days.
You don't need to discuss the works of Tolkien at all--just let us
know how you have been, what are you reading, which dreams you still
hope to pursue or anything else you wish to comment on. Who knows?
You may make a few new friends or even reestablish a few old
friendships. If you know how to contact any of the old gang (Conrad
Dunkerson, Jaime Armstrong, Flame of the West, Russ, Henriette, et
cetera), please pass this invitation along.
We hope to see you there!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 
Morgoth's Curse |

I'll do what I can, anyway. Though I'll be away from my usual
network connection (and my usual news server), so I may have a little
trouble participating... maybe I'll be stuck using Google Groups.

You might try digging their old email addresses out of the archives
(whatever the used most recently); worth a shot, anyway. I've already
dropped Conrad a line over at his Wikipedia Talk page (he's fairly
active there these days).

We won't hold that against you.

That might have been a good idea three or even two years ago, but so
many of the addresses are disposable accounts or spam traps now that I
suspect only a few would actually be read. Some of the servers have
also changed hands a couple of times during the past few years and
accounts have been canceled or transferred.

Just the mention of party hats has got me back here.
It's been a good while, AFT. Just popping in to say hello, since Tamf
alerted teuncdom... And I was feeling a tad nostalgic.

Do pop in for the new years thingy -- we'll have something alcoholic
(beats swapping old stories, anyway)

In my opinion, Christmas and New Year's are vastly overrated. Sure,
they're remunerative, what will all the FATS merchandise that gets
stuck in people's stockings. But they've got nothing on the
Tolkamorambathlon, celebrating seven days of wild partying by MORAMBAR
and the GreatTolk. >> Stay informed about: An Invitation to the First Annual AFT?RABT New Year Party |

At least that might explain why Morambor seems to have been tolking such
a lot these days...

[in a place that is not a place, in a timeless time, a figure stirs at
the base of the T.E.U.N.C. edifice].
<removes hand from supporting pillar - doffs "founding father" hat>
"Geez, that's some weight to be holding up."
<wipes brow>
"Looks like its generating enought hot air to sty up by itself, now."
[the figure wanders off trying to remember the name of a curse he used
use to invoke disaster in the Groups]
"Christmas again, and not a Suziflame in sight - you'd almost miss the
old days, if it weren't for the new days keeping you occupied..."
