I miss Brandi's contributions to this forum.

She gave us a look at poker players (mostly herself, admittedly) from a social perspective, and in alleged first-person. I think it was a welcome addition to mathematical adoration of +ev machines like Brian Townsend or even Barry Greenstein (when I grow up he is gonna be my dad), and the sideline speculation about the less pristine players' habits/bankrolls/whatever.

The BBV side of me also insists that I point out that she was more than a little easy on the eye, regardless of subjective analyses with references to other women who have once (or more) picked up cards, and her mental balance (or lack thereof).

I think her contributions were valuable in a way that has not been filled by a replacement yet, and so she is missed, by me at least.

I open the floor to ridicule/ban/allegations of being Brandi/Julio Iglesias.
