His reaction to swine flu
Don't leave us in suspense!
What was his reaction!?!
I'd exchanged a few emails with TDD. My general impression was that Ted was a hard worker. And willing to show his opinion. I thought he did a stint in the military, but none were mentioned in his obit. My impression was that he'd try to keep you alive, if you were on his platoon. And he seemed to refer to everybody, by what he thought was their race.
I'll bet Ted has changed his mind on water though.

He asserted that if it came down to it he would kill his immediate family before becoming infected himself if the plague turned out to be a worse case scenario.

His post were 'legendary' on the old board...I spoke with him once, over the phone....he sounded just like I thought he would.
RIP TDD
Thanks for posting the link to the Obit Wendell. I met Ted a few times here in Colorado (a couple of times at PLSC annual conferences, and ran into him once in a courthouse). He was indeed quite true to his online persona in real life. A heck of a good Surveyor from the few times I have followed him in the field. RIP Ted.
I always liked Ted Dura Dura ... he always had a way to liven up conversations ...
Ted was a 'Live wire' indeed.
" … he always had a way to liven up conversations …"
So did Hitler.
Holy cowinkydink, Batman. I was thinking of what to say about Ted as I continued to scroll up from the bottom of the thread. And, there it was. Almost word for word for what I had decided to say. From 2021 comes this response: As Ted would say, “Wake up, Sheeple. The black helicopter people finally caught me. Save yourselves.”
