Sometimes I wonder if anyone will remember anything I've done, my time as a gamer, the comics, the minor activism.

It's nice to get the occasional notice that, yes, you are remembered and remembered well. :)

When I was doing art history for my bachelor's, it occurred to me that a lot of works from classical times are "attributed" to this person or that, but we seldom know anything about the creators.Either way, it's good that the work endures. I remember reading an article in Fortean Times about the so called "mummy's curse" that pointed out that the dead actually wanted to be named and remembered, because in their religion, the NAME was a part of the soul, so rather than curse, the Pharaohs who end up in museums would probably bless those who did it.

Which is a long winded way of saying "Yes, it is nice to be remembered".
