Mike, Thank you very much passing on the news of Carl. It's interesting having a group of people communicating on-line because most of us never get to meet in person - and the vast majority of the communication on this list is, obviously, about The Police, not everything else that goes on in our lives. So, we generally have a very narrow perspective on what people we communicate with on this list are like "in real life". We all see names come and go on the list over time, but when people disappear from the list, the logical assumption is that they are simply focusing on other things in their lives. I say all this because despite the fact I did not really "know" Carl, hearing of Carl's passing I find very sad, indeed. I guess part of the reason for this is that he made me smile every time he posted to the list - his name, Johnny Nitro, was simply the coolest. My guess is that he made a lot of other people smile too, and there is a lot to me said for that, for sure. My thoughts and condolences go out to you and the rest of his friends and family. Take care, Mike - and thanks again.

Carl died in July. He had had diabetes for several years, and developed an infection from which he unexpectedly did not recover. Carl was 36, and the second of his parents' two children to have passed away much too soon. My friends and I would like to remember Carl for them as best as we can, and any thoughts or memories you have to share would be deeply appreciated.
