Yeah, it pains me to even read this kind of thing, because it makes me remember the feeling of reading one of his new articles (which was, maybe even _irrationally_ excited).  I don&#x27;t feel that way about any other blogger, past or present.<p>It must be the combination of interesting and unique ideas with a really entertaining writing style that got me.  Maybe it even had something to do with the years he was writing (I was in high-school &amp; college at the time).<p>I don&#x27;t really think Yegge is going to get back into it (and I don&#x27;t blame him), I just hope to find someone else with similar qualities.
