Wow!!! That is sad news.

It doesn't really surprise me. They've screwed with everything that was good about this place and they're still at it.

I guess this post will never be acted upon #reply-15305653

Wasn't he one of the founding members of SI?
If so, he must be worth millions so he should just work for free if he likes it.

Good people and good employees, ones with talent, get hired again, usually quickly. Life will go on for SI Bob once the shock wears off for him. But in the meantime he will be going through a difficult period, and we should all wish him the best, privately......

As for SI itself, it appears that it is no longer something which is going to be supported by the current emperors. Raging Bull was also recently divested by its owners, perhaps the same will be done with SI.

Perhaps the Dryers would be interested in getting back into the fray? I'll bet they could buy it for less than they sold it for.....failing that, we'll either have to buy it ourselves or find a new cyberbuilding.

I am assuming that most of the other SI'ers are gone too, or will be soon. When the last server goes down there won't even be anybody left to turn out the lights.
