I bought from this guys house and then from a business he started in downtown Olympia WA. I think his name is Mike Ross. I have sold hundreds of books I bought from him on this forum in the last few months and just curious if he his still out there...?

Would appreciate any leads to find this man.

There is the urban myth that Matt Groening got his idea for the comic book guy from Mike Ross while he attended college locally at Evergreen State College. Wikipedia debunks this, but who knows...? At any rate he sold me a lot of the books that I have been selling on the forum recently, and a lot of those he saved for me when I served overseas. I would show up every so often on leave and he would have a stack of books waiting for me. I just thought was cool and 35 years later would like to tell him.
