These people have 'past' have they? And what does that mean exactly? Do you mean 'passed'? Lets try re-reading stuff before we post it shall we?

Aside from the mishaps that occured while compiling it, job well done. Shame to see that many of them died from cancer. Still, a very fitting memorial to the people who helped us enjoy the world of Bond. Well done.

Also, as a point of interest, Stanley Kubrick wasn't directly involved with the world of Bond, but he was on the set of TSWLM and served as a lighting director and cinematographer (uncredited) when Claude Renoir's eyesight was failing. Kubrick was born on July 26, 1928 in Manhattan, New York, NY. He died on 7 March, 1999 in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, England. He was 70.

You got the point. So, why is it a big deal?

Sorry, that one was completely my fault. It shows what you get when a edit someone’s work at two in the morning. :) Particularly when I should been to sleep by about nine after a couple of very hectic weeks. Sorry about that Righty, my bad. Anyway I’ve fixed it now.

Well, you certainly deserve thanks from me, Xen. I had made a promise to Righty007, and you made sure I could keep that promise even when I was unexpectedly kept away. So, as you say, you may have only had a small part in the article, but what you did for me was huge. Thanks.

This is a wonderful memorial to those who have passed. Thank you, Chris. btw I'm sorry to see that Walter Gotell is no longer with us. I loved his work.
