by developing and hosting the chipboard, he became a daily part of the lives of every chipper who hangs out here...
"Smiling Greg" is simply a tribute, to a great guy, by a group of his friends who wish to keep him involved. An ususual tribute? Sure...but this is the same group of friends who mailed a bubble envelope (with a trader chip, I think?) from person to person to person...just to see how far the envelope could travel! The envelope then became an exhibit at the annual convention.
Chippers are pretty special people, and they like to have fun...sure, it's a little "outside the box", but the fact that so many people want to participate in the tribute should give you an idea of just how special Greg was. My only regret is that I never got to meet him in person .
