My sincerest condolences are with the family and friends of Colin Douthwaite. 
I never met him but felt as though I had.  He touched many people throughout
the world-- more than he probably realized.   He'll be missed in our newsgroup.
 I'm quite sure that he won't be forgotten.   For one thing, his ASCII art and
his reputation will live on.
