I also spent some time on King Arthur Baking Circle a couple years before joining egullet, also in 2004!
So many people I miss: Chufi from Holland, Hathor living part of her time in Umbria part in NY, Foodman, Pontormo. I also miss a lot RRO and too long of a list.
I migrated to eG about a month after you did, also from King Arthur Baking Circle when I became annoyed by a guy who doubted that I had attended Dunwoodie baking school in the '50s - claimed it was a school for men only. I didn't spar with him, didn't answer but he just wouldn't let it go. A long time friend from SOAR, the old Compuserve online recipe source, suggested I look in on eG and I have been here ever since.
Gifted Gourmet - Melissa was the first to welcome me and I miss her. Also Fifi with whom I corresponded by email about a lot of off topic things.
