Ja he was that, and many things.  Everything with Sasha was so 100% full
throttle, no halfway anything.  My personal archives only go back to late
1999, so I have no examples from his posts unfortunately.  I hope we can
find some of his writing for the upcoming book by Natasha.  Perhaps some old
time ExI chatters have them in their archives.  On any list, there may be
hundreds of posters, many of whom we ignore or skim lightly, but we all have
a few people for whom we read every word, every time they post, the bright
lights.  We know who they are here, no need to name names.  Sasha was one of
the very bright lights in the 1990s.
