…and I don’t think I’m going to renew for the time being. I’m not quite sure if anyone is actually going to care but I’ll be leaving the boards for a while. I’ve been a member since 1999, and I’m very grateful to have been exposed to new ideas, intelligent discussions, and due in part to the time I spent here, I have revised or changed several of my opinions over the years. On the other hand, sometimes my own ideas were simply reinforced. So for all the people I behaved like a jerk to, like you Matt\_MCL, I apologize. I wish everyone the best of luck. Marc ---

Seems fitting that I -guest poster-should wish you out. I’ve noted your posts but didn’t pick up on the jerk part.Mmm. Saying I care about you leaving doesn’t sound quite right,but nobody can post like you. How’s that? Best of luck to you,too. ---
