VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Dinah|DATE|1377277626|CONTENT|What can I say that hasnt already been said?  Probably nothing, but one of the lights of my life has just been extinguished.  Whenever I was feeling a bit down, in need of a laugh or just something to divert me from the same old worries and new worries, I turned to POTD, and it never failed me.  Peter, you have a way of putting things that is simply inimitable.  You cut through the crass, the pompous, the self-delusional and the inane like a hot knife through a block of ice-cream.  What is more, you do it with humour.  It is a sad day for us, but probably a relief to all those contributors to TFTD who have dared to look at what you said about their offerings.  I often wonder how many of them do/did.  It is a pity you did not receive more credit from the wider community for your efforts, but I imagine the contributors would have considered that commenting on your comments would have given this site a legitimacy they would not have wanted, and a publicity they would not have welcomed.

Like others, I am amazed you have managed to keep going for so long.  Even so, I still cant quite believe it, but I have to because it is not April 1st.  I cherish hopes that you may just occasionally be tempted back by a particularly meaty offering, but accept you have done far more than your bit.  My very best wishes to you and your partner for the future.
