Vale Art Stratemeyer
Sad to hear that Art Stratemeyer passed away 8 April 2008.
Art's wife Betsy informs me that as a result the wonderful wine-related site Stratsplace.com will go offline 31 August 2008. Art was kind enough to publish my articles at Stratsplace and though we never met he seemed like an all round good guy. He and Stratsplace will be sorely missed. Martin |

Haven't visited Stratsplace in years, but Art posted a few times here. My sympathies to his family. |

As I recall, Art said he was a yum/yuck wine taster - which is
something I can relate to. My wife can detect the subtle nuances in a wine. I can't, but I've refined my yum/yuck scale into 4 categories: Yum, Yum!, Yum!! and Yuck!!!. Sad to hear about Art's passing. Dick R. |

Very sad news indeed. I first encountered Art when I was doing
software reviews for Ziff-Davis software library and I reviewed Cellar! software. Thought it was great and contacted Art to compliment him on the effort as well as to point him toward the published review. Over the years I had occasion to correspond with him several times and always found him to be helpful and informative. It made it easy to put in a good word at any opportunity on both Stratsplace and Cellar! I'll raise a glass this evening to him. |

That's very sad news, Martin, both about Art and his great website. In my limited contact with him, I always found him to be a gentleman, and his efforts toward wine education on his website were substantial.
