Just read through this thread after being alerted to it. I've often thought about Brian during the too many hours spent on here over the years, in more recent times willing him back to post his sage one-liners, asides and digressions that had enough creativity and abandon to base film-plots, nay entire series', on.
And more than once I have wondered/worried whether he had passed away but then I recalled some stints of absence in the past so was hopeful he'd return with a pearl of wisdom or three.
He was always so respectful and charming in addressing fellow-posters and replying to points we all made on the forum.
He and Damon both helped make this place a cut-above in the 2000s/2010s.
Thank you Brian, you'll always be legendary.
