nickd - Nick Disabato has a site called nickd.org - to say he runs it would be inaccurate. He owns it, updates in spurts, and occasionally completely changes it. Nick was formerly the primary news updater on a site called ticalc.org; his profile at that sight linked to his personal webpage. I can tell you I remember my days of forays into the TI calculator world with great fondness. Many people from the ticalc.org community wandered to Nick’s website via his profile and perhaps this is how the webpage developed a large following; I honestly don’t know. Strangely enough, it seems as though the website’s near-exclusive purpose is to communicate with Mr. Disabato’s close friends and family. Nevertheless, it is consistently interesting. I especially liked nick’s post from August 13th, 2000: “Today is the thirteenth. Since not everyone yet knows about my vehement superstition related to the number thirteen, let me tell you a few brief points: My great-grandmother died thirteen days before I was born. My grandmother died thirteen days after my thirteenth birthday, on the thirteenth. Now I don’t usually believe in superstition, and there’s always the chance that all this is coincidental, but… DAMN.”
