Except for a very brief appearance, Lorrie checked out after a dustup with some forumites about a year ago. And, should we assume that cdr has moved on to the great vineyard in the sky?

 Please explain! As far as I know, CDR is probably posting under a new name |

Morbid? I guess so. People die, it happens. As far as I could tell, he was an older gentleman who'd had some health issues in recent years. I hope he's still with us.

These two come to mind immediately:

He hasn't posted since then, but let's hope it's not for the reason IB suggested. Latour, what name do you think he's posting under? Anyone who disses the terroir concept is a distinct possibility. 
I really don't have a clue, but I've read some posts and wondered if it was CDR. Also, I seem to remember he was frequently changing is location. Chicago, Napa, Phoenix, Dubai, etc. Heck, I was hoping Joe would know! |

Yeah, I’m aware of the circle of life. Just seemed over the top to say that we can assume he is dead because he is not posting on a wine board anymore. |

Ditto. Ron posts of Squires Board. Don't know why, as he seems to not get along with anyone there. |

w+a, I'm guessing that might be "hiatus afflatus", who passed away about three years ago. |
