Should someone register a "ghost" account (I thought that sounded better than "dummy") using Bill's handle, so that doesn't happen again?

Maybe Matt or Kelley could work some Admin-magic to reserve the name?

To tell the truth, I had missed the thread that spurred this thread.

I read it, and now I understand.

Admins may need to delete his account, so he can re-register using his same email address (I doubt a person can have two accounts with the same email), and then we could set up the Memorial Airhead/Bill Emery account.

Have there been any more sightings?

I've only seen him the once, up in the twisties near Omeo. I just caught him in the peripheral vision and he was really moving. The R90 sounded gorgeous.

Eye already tried it - before eye knew there was a newbie with that name. That was when eye found the thread.

He has not posted since his initial post.


Please don't go away 'airhead', we DO want you to stay.
This must seem really petty to you, but this is a bit of a community, many going back to Y2K.

But we'll be extra nice to you if you promise to stay!

I suppose this isn't a good time to mention the Boxerworks 'cargo cult' rumour?
You know, the one about the shallow graves in the nearby forest and the BMW parts appearing on eBay.

Prolly just a rumour.
