So I've been contacted by half a dozen folks, telling me that my absence
was the topic of a rather lively thread here -- so I thought I'd pop in
for a peek at my old stomping ground. How's everyone been?

No, we're not dead. On September 4th, after over ten years of daily
postings on these groups, I joined the ranks of "former RAPpers" by

was just a long, slow, gradual culmination of many things. The signal to
noise ratio here had deteriorated to such a level that no number of
killfiles could do the job -- and what was left after culling the herd of
trolls was pathetically small. Pilots of America called to me, warts and
all, so I jumped in with both feet and haven't looked back....
