The invaluable ‘Salvador Miranda’ Cardinals website went dark a year ago.
Last time we heard from dear Salvador — June 28, 2023.
Last time he updated the Website — May 8, 2023.
While I have NO intention of trying to emulate ALL that dear Salvador did, I do want to try and maintain an ACCURATE record of the CHANGES to the College.
Salvador’s website will EVER remain good for everything UP TO 2023.
What I will do is maintain a list (in the form of one of my famed ‘magic’ Excel spreadsheets) of all the changes — i.e., creations, deaths, aging outs & expulsions — as of Jan. 1, 2023. So, this is the start.
The spreadsheet is done. It has some HIDDEN columns. Plus, I plan to add a few more. No point maintaining a magic Guruge spreadsheet IF I don’t milk as much data as I can. I will calculate days between changes, days between deaths, obituary demographic, etc.
I have ALREADY created a Webpage for MY ‘College of Cardinals’. More on that later. This is but a start. SMILE.
This is in memory of my friend Salvador.
I dedicated my 2020, encyclopedic, 518-page ‘The Conclave‘ book to Salvador.
I am glad I did. He was chuffed.
