I am also very sad to hear of his passing. I enjoyed reading his posts, and I did not know he reviewed as well.

If it's okay to ask, does anyone know where his name of "snowysdad" came from? I read a lot of Tintin books when I was growing up (many of which have aged horribly), and I wondered if "snowy" came from that or was unrelated.

I don't know for sure, but at one time he had a dog grooming business, so I always assumed it was a pet dog.

I confess I wondered that about Bill’s handle, too, Snowy was always my second favorite character, after Captain Haddock, of course.

I always pictured him with a white cat. No idea if that's what the name was about...
