Scream!! (formerly Him), although a fairly new contributor to RationalWiki, has nevertheless had some impact on the site due to his friendship with SusanG. He first posted as Him, and Him was sysopped by David Gerard on 2 August 2010^[5]. Then he lost the password or something, and came back as...

[edit] Scream!!

Scream!! turned up at RW in March 2011. At first he seemed to be just another new user, posting news links and cracking snarky comments at the saloon bar, until on 10 April he mentioned his "late neighbour" who had edited half of RW's help files from her phone.^[6] This first hint of SusanG's passing was met with some consternation, especially as Scream!!'s personal way with words appeared to him to be preferable to passing on any actual information about her. Finally, directly challenged by P-Foster,^[7] he presented RW with the sad news. Edits made in her name since her passing had been made by him, editing in her name;^[8] something he had also been doing at her Flickr account.^[9] He was syopped by Ty on 31 March 2011.
