[sumo] [Off-topic] Great posters of the past (was Number of posts)

[John Racine]

> This points out what the list has lost with the
departure of some of our most prolific and informative
posters: Kobayashi Toshiharu, Barbara Ann, and
Alexander Nitschke (aka Doitsuyama).

I believe that Kobayashi-san is still with us.  He posts the succinct and
useful torikumi and results lists during the honbasho.  Doitsuyama posts his
game results, but doesn't get involved in the flames.

Masumi Abe should also appear on that list.  His posts were as informative
as anyone's over the years.  He may have quit over health issues, unlike
others who quit due to our inability to stop flaming one another.

Is anyone still in touch with Abe-san?
