Hello Gang,
In this newsgroup over the past 15 years or so I have been a lurker, a poster, a mega poster, and then back to being a super silent lurker. During this time on several occasions I have been privileged to meet some of the members of this newsgroup in person, and I was honored to be asked to write a guide for this newsgroup (and weathered an incredible storm of protests regarding it). Unfortunately though the time has come for me to do a bit of personal budget crunching and cancel my subscription to the Giganews news service. In the distant future as my fortunes change, and shift I may make return, but don't count on it, on the other hand count against it either....
It may seem a touch melodramatic making a statement about my departure, and some will question the need for me to publicly say it. But the last time I vanished for several months, someone spread a tale that I was dead, and I don't want a encore performance of that. It was rather disconcerting to have E-mails bouncing all over the place asking if I was truly dead.
I may lurk for a day or two longer, as I think I have a few days left on this month's subscription but sadly the time has come to say good bye.
So happy aircraft chasing, and I wish the best of luck to the ABPA and all it's members...
