On August 9, 1995, the news of Jerry Garcia's passing spread through the Deadhead world like a tsunami. Over at the AOL Grateful Dead Forum, the chat rooms exploded, and replicated, with over 600 people simultaneously sharing their grief, in over a dozen chat rooms.
It's ten years later, and even though the old place has seen better days, many of us got back together to reminisce, meet old friends and new ones, and share our love of the music. We even had an internet streamer, bulletradio.com, change his programming last night to fit our theme. What follows is a totally garbled chat log, probably of interest to few, but here anyway.
