If memory serves, Secret Garden was recovering from (or still had) an illness, so was posting less frequently due to that. I don't remember the other two.

And Mr. Pink had an accident when book binding and hurt his hand badly.

Hyperweeky was last seen starting a new job with an internet company (Mircosoft ?).

Holy crap, I hope he's OK.

Speaking of which (and apologies if someone already covered it earlier) but what about dunroving? I know he got sick, or had an accident (can't remember which, sorry to say) a while back too.

Yes, Dunroving had a bad car accident. He is up and running. Someone posted a question about him and there was a reply that they had seen him and he is doing better.

Using the search engine, I found so many people that were regulars here:

Ironporer, Duncan Roberts, Nettlebed, Just Jenny, Candy wy

Yes - now that you mention it, I remember Mr. Pink's accident. That happened just before he moved to the US. I was in touch with him and SG for a while about 10 or so years ago. They lived outside Chicago... and then they both seemed to fall off the grid.
