(Click here for chatnames A - L)

• Malice in Wonderland, aka Jen (thanks to Anadine for explaining this to me!), updates us for the 2001 Reunion: "I am graduating this December from the University of Maryland with a psychology degree, and next year in June I am going to Africa as a volunteer with the Peace Corps. I have no regularly updated website, but the best ways to reach me are through AOL Instant Messenger (my handle is bellabird) or through email ( nitkowsj@wam.umd.edu)."

• Marichellennia (surname formerly Hawkmoon, now Sowelucat) says, "Hi! I am the one and only Marichellennia (former last name Hawkmoon, now changed to Sowelucat) I used to chat every single day for hours in those 'golden years', but after they closed the good old SoHo Chat I kinda lost interest...this reunion and the new SoHo chatroom is just great!!! Brings back so many memories, both good and bad.. My webpage is still at SoHo/Studios/7722 and I am now engaged to someone I met on the net a couple of years ago (not in a chat) and we are very happy :) I have met several of the chatters of SoHo, among them MADduck from Denmark and Babalou from Italy. Great fun! My best wishes to everyone!

• Meadowlark says, "I now use llanally as my chat/icq name, though I don't really chat anywhere anymore. ICQ# 6774163. I'm back in Virginia going to college. As for more SoHo-ers, Golden Wolf (aka Karolyn)is at golden_wolf1@hotmail.com and ICQ# 2955940 still I think and SAINT is at ICQ# 1590896 but neither come online much anymore."

• Methos MacLeod, aka Moth MacLeod, says, "Hi, I used to chat in SoHo, what a wonderful place!! My current chat name is usually MacMethos or Sarah MacMethos. I have AOL instant messenger, under the name of the1MacMethos, and Microsoft messenger at methos_macleod@hotmail.com. The e-mail I check most often is MacMethos@excite.com" Methos' homepage is at MacMethos.homestead.com.

• Michael says: "Greetings: Back in the day, I chatted in SoHo as 'Sensitive, Humble, Brilliant', but found myself Javaed out of the room when the chat format changed.It was a sad day. I still have my page on Geo: SoHo/Gallery/4928. I'm living and teaching in Oregon, and chatting very infrequently--nothing near the high quality of the old SoHo crew exists anywhere online nowadays. I'd be happy to hear what everyone is up to these days. My ICQ: 4797976."

• Midnight Pumpkin, aka a whole lot of other names (I do that, too! *grin*), and--like Gumdrops and me--another dollmaker + artist, is online chatting in ICQ and especially in ICUII as Faerie, or as Alyce Malyce, in full gothic makeup of course! *grin* She's still married (congrats, Midnight!) and her son is now in his teens. And she's refurbishing her webpages, so there'll be more info on that, later. Does anyone know how to reach her? nakedhamster@hotmail.com is bouncing... *sniff*

• The dazzling and talented Mr. Pez, aka Adam Jakib, says, "Sorry I've been out of contact with everyone! After SoHo's demise I lost everyone! I have a few homepages but none dedicated to me only...they are both band pages. Anyway, I'm on ICQ so everyone come grab me @: 12675762. You can't get of Mr. Pez that easily! Much Love!" And you can email him at jonas@tcia.net.

• MysteryLady, aka Lynn, aka Joel's mom, is in North Carolina, being a nurse at Duke. She shared a whole lot of info with me about other SoHo Loft chatters. Like Nikki (aka Radiant), MysteryLady has met several Loft alumni offline, and suggests that we should do a talk show where we all finally meet and try to match names and faces, to nicknames! Cool idea! You can reach Lynn at mystery_l@hotmail.com and she's at ICQ 2701452.

• Nicki (Nicola Scurlock) has the always-brilliant mint mansion webpages at GC. Latest news from her includes romance! Yes, she's engaged, planning to marry sometime next year.

  She's also working in her own company now, pscreative (go there and see the site... gorgeous work, as usual!), and recently entered an animated film in a London festival. Cool!

• We've heard from Ohamsie, who'd love to hear from friends. She says: "Uh, I really don't think we ever met in soho. I was usually on around 3:00-4:00 after school. So I was there. You can even ask Joe/f. She rocks. I found this site through E. Magill's. Anyways, I was wondering if you've heard anything from Angel on the Run/Rocks (AOTR) or WCE. I miss them, and their old webpage is now gone, boo.

  Well, here's some stuff about me if ya wanna know:

In a second message, he adds, "email is nottap77@aol.com or his other email, [four-letter email name deleted *grin and shrug*--hey, this is a family page!] (you can click on this link to use that email anyway), any or all can be used please. Glad to see some old and familiar names and look forward to talking to one and all. Be good and take care."

• The colorful Pwca, aka Glenn, has found his true calling, collecting beach glass, surfing, and working on his tan. Well, maybe...? No, he didn't really say that; I made it up! *grin* Seriously (or not), he's living and teaching, about a hundred yards from the Gulf of Mexico and loving it! Although it may be older (?), Glenn still has a refreshing and funny site at CollegePark/2339, so check it out.

• Radiant, aka Nikki, is still single and studying part-time at university (in a four-year program) as a theatre major at Brock Univ, so she's still living in Ontario, Canada. She still TOTALLY misses everyone from the Loft, and is also still totally about smiley faces..they're everywhere! So far, she's met at least ten people from the Loft and she wants to meet everyone! So visit her and let her show you nearby Niagara Falls. Her email addy is nott@hotmail.com, her ICQ is 2108614 and AIM is n1991090. She'll be on MSN and Yahoo Messengers soon, too. Or cruise by her stunning and lyrical website at Paris/3105. (She's also sent me more SoHo email addys so I can maybe reach more of our still-lost chatters! Yippee!)

I don't chat much anymore. My homepage is at SoHo/Lofts/1694, but it hasn't changed much since I was chatting." You can email the Rogue at terminalwriter@hotmail.com.

• The latest news from Saturn..."Since SoHo's destruction, I've given up chat rooms. I still keep contact with a few, very few, SoHo people on ICQ. My ICQ # is 3215423, which you definitely may post for others to find. I've gone to using my birth name for just about everything now - Arlissa. Recent news - I graduated high skool!! And now, I'll be off to college on August 12th. I'll be attending East Carolina University in Greenville, NC. I'll be busy, but I'll still have time for ICQ. Well, that's about it for now. I'm so glad e. magill is having another SoHo reunion, I missed last years." You can email Saturn at arlissa@hotmail.com.

• Sheila says, "Jack(NC) and sheila are alive and well, living together in NC and are engaged to be married. No date set as of yet, will keep you posted.

  "We often talk to Knigh(NC).

  "You can email us at either one of our addresses: sheilara@bluenet.net, and kaday@bluenet.net." Like many SoHo chatters, she asked if we've heard from Beauregard/Juno yet. (Answ: Not yet, still looking!)

• Our never-meek Sister Amber Lynne has a funny, outspoken, highly-opinionated website and is still actively online, despite being badly treated by a certain chatter. *sigh* Our dear Sister is clearly able to leap those tall buildings (and small toads) in a single bound, so you can find her at Yahoo as amberlynne91 or on ICQ (7406661). This dear sister is now living in Houston with a college roomie and their lovely dog, Miya. She's at a new marketing job now, too. Congrats, amberlynne! Oh yes, she's eager to receive email from friends, too.

• SunKing sent me a note recommending ChatNetworks, a chat site clearly modeling itself after the "old" GC chat scene.

• Trystessa/sullengirl/etc.etc.etc... *chuckle*, aka Charlie (photographer Charlene Wright), has a magnificent, amazing, thoughtful website at her uglygeek.com pages. RUN, do not walk, to see her photos, a visual journal (I love the pepper..."treated to reduce bacteria"? I never really read one of those packages before!), and... well, a picture is worth a thousand words, so just go see her website! Her current email is charlie@uglygeek.com, too. (She's been really helpful providing info about several SoHo Loft chatters, who are now "found" thanks to her help!)
