Yes, I just went into that website, did you mean Paul R. Flint age 72 of New York?? is that the fellow? How do we know for sure it is the same Paul Flint from the Phonolist. The reason I asked is that discussion came up before, and some one pointed out his passing and than it was contradicted by someone else, so it was never resolved. What was it that Mark Twain once said? "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated". Can we confirm this one way or another absolutely positively, just like the coroner in Munchkin City did with the Wicked Witch of the West?? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Fraser" <pjfra...@alamedanet.net> To: "Antique Phonograph List" <phono-l@oldcrank.org> Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 2:51:42 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Phono forum problem Nope, he's been dead since 2005. You can verify it on the Social Security Death Index (google "SSDI" to find it), plus he hasn't posted on the list (or board or listserv or whatever), or responded to any requests since that time. The cat part isn't as easy to verify but every time I've been told of his death that's been part of the story. Happens a lot when lonely people with pets die and nobody finds them for a while.
