Rarely have time to post any more, try to find time to read some threads on occasion though. Always enjoyed this poster, would often look to find his posts, among a few others, which I’m glad are still around. But noticed when I did a search for his last on-line time, it was back in November of 2016. Does anybody know why he hasn’t posted in such a long time? Sure hope things are well with him. ---

I’ve noticed that as well. Have missed his posts. ---

The question “Is Voyager still around?” breaks my brain. 😕 ---

Still around around, not Dope around. When Dump got elected I decided to take a break from all political news. But now the pull is strong! (And maybe I can plug my wife’s vaccine book.) Thanks for the nice words. ---

Good to hear you’re ok. I checked your profile after you’d been gone awhile and saw that your last day was election day. I was afraid the results of that day caused a health emergency for you. 🙂 Hope you’ll weigh in on some topics. I always learn from your words. ---

People have stopped creating threads in every forum about him–even if he does have more than one ongoing Pit thread. ---

So glad to see him back. Hoping he will post to more threads soon. His common sense, tech knowledge and empathy were all much appreciated. He came across as a tech-ish version of **Qadgop**. ---
