Closing this area

Blacklord · March 04, 2009, 06:45 AM

As Michael hasn't been around for over a year now (Jan 8th 2008), I've decided that the best thing to do is close this sub-forum & move the two discussions in here into the general 128 areas.

Does anyone have any objections ?

It's too bad. This had a lot of potential. I still hope he's all right, but my common sense says he's no longer with us.

Mmmm.... I tend to agree, he was ill then abruptly went AWOL.

No-one seems to know anything either.

My common sense too says he's no longer with us. It's all very sad

BTW, did Michael ever release SLOPe?

I don't think so.

Did anyone here know anyone who might have known Michael outside of cyberspace? It sure would be nice to find out what became of him.

I think I found him- http://www.michael-george-hart.com

Can anyone confirm ?

SmallCleverDinosaur · March 13, 2009, 04:52 PM

Hmm... I doubt it. Any particular reason why you think this is him? Except for the name of course

I looked at his pages and didn't find any mentioning of Commodore. Don't you think he would have done that even once? Or maybe I missed something?

Besides, according to "Whois", this guy lives in Newark, New Jersey and not Maryland as "our" Michael does. But I guess he could have moved... Have you tried contacting this guy?

It was a good research though

Ah, he mentions 65xx programming on his pages.....

If it is Michael George Hartley, he's posted on comp.os.com as recently as today, and his e-mail address is michael.george.hart@gmail.com, so interested parties could drop him a line.

I don't think it is the Michael Hart that was coming here. No mention of anything Commodore, and for reasons that I can't quite articulate, the Michael Hart at www.michael-george-hart.com website seems to be in a totally different sphere, computer-wise.

I don't think his last name is Hartley.
