Adrian M. Phypers, aka Viper, set up the Casebook: Jack the Ripper Press Project, so his service to Ripperologic studies was immense. He passed away suddently on 17 April 2003. Adrian used the screen name "Bluecoat Boy" in the old Casebook Productions chatroom and the Casebook: Jack the Ripper chatroom, and was, I understand, a graduate of the Bluecoat school in the East End. He was also a Leyton Orient F.C. supporter which he often spoke about in the chatroom. His knowledge of the case and of East End history was phenomenal. Adrian was very helpful to myself and other researchers and the amount of material he sent me was substantial, for which I remain grateful. There is an obit of him on Casebook that we originally ran in Ripperologist here.
Best regards
Chris
