Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll bet the RealDoll line was in there.

Yes, but without anything wiki or trope related. Just that one line.

I did a Nilly! Go me!

We might not be verbs, but sometimes stuff gets done. Good job.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oddly, someone with the user name Gus Raley posted a link to TV Tropes in February 2007 at an article about sci fi tropes. [link]

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Anyone have a premium LinkedIn account?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Wow. Gus.

Oh the memories...!

I am finally returning my students papers!!!! and celebrating with a sip of wine. phew! (I'm still worried about a couple kids who haven't turned in final versions, but I'm going to repress it for now so I can get a good night's sleep.)

Annalee replied to my email saying she'd corrected the idea that Fast Eddie et al were original members. So I went back to look at the article and I still disagree with it, but I'm letting it go.

I do notice it's actually got a link back here. Did it always have a link back here?

Our wings are not tired.

No, it did not.

I knew I would find folks talking about Gus in here. ::dusts off a chair and plonks down::

Hec, thanks for emailing Annalee. I've met her once, but I'm sure correction would come better from you anyway. I'd love to know who this Fast Eddie chap is, claiming he was a TTer and helped found the board. Pffft.

And damn, now I'm reading the Bureaucracy thread.

I jumped to the end of Natter (way behind), and now I'm reading the last 200 or so posts to catch up, because:

It was just "Gus" although I know that Sean and I were also admins there when it started up.

Yep. Plei and I were among the original mods over there.
