This is the day I dreaded would come. A fighter to the end, but Wanka finally gave up the fight. Rest well, old friend.
Wanka John was a freedom loving libertarian of the highest class. When he chafed against the restrictions of Vronsky’s Gold Eagle forum, he enticed us away to explore ‘behind the Red Door’. Wanka founded a private Goldbugz forum for us, first on Yahoo, and later found a webmaster to put together the great WordPress forum(s) we now enjoy. The Gold Trains were a bit of a joke between us, based on his recall of taking the train from New Jersey down to Florida. I used to tease him that when he made some billions that he would have to rebuild Flagler’s railroad all the way back to Key West! John’s Gold Train is flying high now.

Wanka was our founder. The best thing we can do to honor his memory is to keep this forum going as a place of refuge for market-battered goldbugs. Aloha, John !
