[sdiy] Condolences to Tim Servo and company

[cheater cheater]

Tim,
thanks for hanging around. I'm sure I'm not the only person who's
happy to have you here.

As for people being abusive: you have earned our respect and with that
every right to feel comfortable and welcome in here. There's no
denying you that.

As for filters: of course the phattest filter is the one where I start
a thread, and it completely shoots off on some wild tangent.

:^)
