Can not send mail from work, so I will ask here:

Where is \*\*elucidator \*\*? I haven’t seen any posts from him in a while. Anybody knows if he is ok?

According to his [profile](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?username=elucidator), he’s not been here since the 6th, nearly three weeks ago. Nothing in his last few posts about taking a sabatical or anything, either. Hope he’s ok.

Thanks for that **Q.E.D.** I knew he was not posting but I wasn’t sure for how long. No one has any idea what **luc** is doing?

And so he did. All is well, medications still effective, just takes a little longer gnawing through the straps…

Nice to be missed. Peace on you.!

You know, one of the great things about this place is that people get concerned when someone doesn’t show up for awhile. A rare thing on a message board, I think.

Even better is the fact that the people who notice and ask first are often the missing posters most vocal “enemies” on the Board. This is indeed a wonderful place.

Nah, that’s just laying the groundwork for an alibi. 😉

Glad to hear you’re okay, **luci**. I hadn’t noticed you were gone, but I would have been concerned if I had. Really.
