Silicon Investor was launched on August 8, 1995, just a day before Netscape went public.[1] It was founded in Cupertino, California by two brothers, Jeff and Brad Dryer.[2] SI was the first Internet community to grow purely out of the web browser.[3] In November 1995, the Dryer brothers relocated Silicon Investor to their home town of Kansas City. The website was financed by membership fees charged and contributions from the founders.[2] en.wikipedia.org

I am shocked and terribly saddened by that news. I only met Brad in person once around ten years ago, but we communicated frequently during the early days of SI in the 90's. He was cranking out code and I was debugging for him. I still have the thank you note from Brad, Jeff and Jill that accompanied a bottle of champagne right the sent after they sold SI to GNET. I too will remember him fondly. Thank for sharing that, Jeff. Dave
