While I wouldn't say 'Roo was quite my "pocket mod" for getting things done, He is a few other things in my estimation.
 - One of the last of a 'generation' of staff from a time where I think staff were at their best. This is from when he was active, mind you, before dropping and then returning.
 - An approachable fellow with a fair personality and appropriate temperament to be a mod. Lax, but not necessarily passive, which is a key distinction I look for.
 - a fairly good meme

And yep. Can't say more, as we never really [i]did[/i] anything but have the once in a blue moon chat.
