Lizard, more than almost anyone else I knew on UM, showed an awareness of what an amazing tool the Internet can be for connecting with and educating other people. He was informative without being patronizing, always entertaining, and always happy to share a recommendation or a bit of good advice. Our little corner of the world just went darker. But he'll be remembered with respect and affection by people all over the world, and that's as much as anyone could ask for.
RIP, Lizard. You'll be missed.
