As such, I have submitted a little....well, not exactly tribute, perhaps, but a listing of my favourite threads to be found in the current volume of the board, with a comment about each.

The piece can be found on my website http://www.celluloidtunes.net/fsm.htm and is called "The Film Score Monthly Messageboard: Highlights from a healthy film music discussion forum".

I want to direct a special thanks to Dan Hobgood, Howard L, Marian Schedenig, Dutch, joan hue, hemant, logied, ZapBrannigan, Joe Esrey, Gustavo Joseph, ThomasCrown76 and vulcantouch for initiating these fine threads. And of course to everyone who participated in them.

I was surprised to find two threads started by myself in your list, as I found that I usually only reply to existing threads.

NP: Koyaanisqatsi (Philip Glass)

Seems like a decade or two, so who am I to quibble? http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/smile.gif">

<raises a glass> To friendship! To community! To FSM!

When I visit your site, Thor, I’m overwhelmed by the amount of work
you’ve done, the depths in music you’ve plumbed, and the quality of
your writing. I know many native English speakers whose grammar
and vocabulary pale next to your English usage.

Deeply Appreciative, Joan

Now I'll NEVER be able to remove that picture from Photopoint...

Shucks, Thor.
I'm speechless.

Gorgeous site, fella!

Cheers man, nice to be in your company.

Lars.

I also agree with Wedge in that it seems like it was more than 4 years ago since it all started. Guess that says something about the amount of time we spend around here...

I feel a bit guilty for not having participated as much in some of the more serious, involving discussions; to be honest, I don't have as much musical background or education as many others here, nor do I have nearly as extensive or varied a score library, so I simply don't feel qualified to add my opinion to the others, but I'll do it eventually anyway. I do have strong feelings on some of the topics discussed in the "serious" threads; I just haven't always bothered to post, partly out of timidity over the validity or lack thereof of my own opinions, and partly, I admit, out of sheer laziness. http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/biggrin.gif">

Incidentally, I haven't yet had time to check out any films by Ivo Caprino, but I _will_ get to it, I promise. http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/smile.gif">

That goes for me too. Very well put, Joe. But am I to understand that Howard got a dinner? Even Lukas Kendall never got a dinner.

I'd be happy with a lunch...a breakfast...maybe even just a snack.

congrats for this fine site. Thanks that you mentioned my thread, I was very much moved and also a little bit proud.

It was and I think will always be a treat discussing with you, I myself learned a lot visiting this board.

Also best wishes to all the others,

hang loose,

H.
