Her recent string, This Is The Apocalypse, has more information.

In case anyone missed the hint, Sela (Mrs. Lois Landela) died on Saturday, January 21, of her long and recurrent illness. Other information is available in my note in her string, This is the Apocalypse.

She wrote well and I enjoyed the challenges she brought. She also was an organist and a dog lover.

Her service was today, January 27.

Donald,

After all the years Sela spent on Prodigy (both *P Classic and *P Internet) and then on Aantares, and considering how active she was on the religion boards, it seems she should have a more appropriate memorial than just the two brief notes you posted. Would you consider posting something on "Announcements and News"?

I know I fought with her a lot in recent years, but I attribute some of her cantankerousness in the later years to her declining health. I felt a lot closer to her in the old Prodigy Classic days than later on. I even sent her some emails in the 1990s in which I confided things to her that I didn't tell everyone. A little while ago I was looking at a group email I wrote in 1997. It had a restricted distribution list of nine people, and Lois was one them. I am considering reposting this email on my blog, and if I do I'll mention that she passed away recently.

If I can find one of her emails in my files and it isn't too personal, I may repost it here on the R&S board as a kind of memorial.

Donald,

Apparently she was well-loved and her family has much support. My condolences are to you because I know you must miss your dialog with her. It's wonderful to have a friend you can share so much with, here or anywhere. Yes, she was a wonderful writer. I saw her picture and she was attractive and appeared much as I pictured her.

My best.

Peachy

Thanks much for your thoughts and support.
We exchanged thinking ever since Prodigy days.
There is a member of her home circle posting here as a newby.

We were looking for the great earthquake of Revelation 16:18, and a possible situation is now developing near Santorini Island in the Aegean Sea. You can see it NE of Crete on this map:

Since this is a region of active volcanos, especially at Santorini, known as the BEST ISLAND for tourism, I don't want to read much into anything that happens there. Even as I follow it closely.

Thanks again.
Donald
