I thought I would take a moment and post a progress report on my fight against pancreatic cancer. The first batch of chemo medicine did no have the effect that we wanted. It stopped the new growth of the tumor, which is a good thing, but we need it…

Rest in Peace Sir.
RIP Dan, and thank you for all the time that you gave for our enjoyment.
We will miss you Dan...I will never forget "Dan Dan the Anti Spam Man" all the hidden work that went behind the scenes to keep this place ticking..and constant fight against spam and hacking. Also the man behind the scenes who helped level the tracks on the Rolling Stones Tribute album and was always so helpful to everyone. Rest in Peace
God Bless you, Dan. You will be missed.
I worked with Dan at SunGard in Florida. After he was laid off and looking for another job, he started building cigar box guitars in his garage. He would ask me to come by and check them out, play them, provide player feedback, that kind of stuff. I bought his first 3-string Rocky Patel and still have it. He then built me a four string cbg customized to include a pickup. Soon after, he landed a job in DC and found his way closer to CBN. I sort of lost touch with him, but always remember his cool, calm demeanor and his technical abilities. You will be missed Dan.
