Mariner*, you about said it all. Yes, it was important to me and much appreciated by his sister, junebug4, that Mark held a place there, and i trust he'll be there long after all of
us are gone. As long as iHub lasts, i hope. The time he put in on Tornado Alley no one could match. The breadth of contest he put up no one could match. The empathy
he had for those not as well off financially as he was, or otherwise, was appreciated and shared by all here who knew him. His insight is shared here by few too.
If you are ever tempted to contribute weather material here, please feel free to rev up a storm once-in-awhile.
