The sad nature of forums like this is that people come, stay for a bit, and then leave without another word. We're all like mini celebrities here, with some of us leaving and fading into obscurity and some of us sticking around with longevity.

It's just the nature of things.

Some, yes, but there is a general core of members who stay active, and when they're not around people do ask. This is how we all started wondering about Howard, with a sad result, and why one or two people were concerned when I didn't show up for a week, which turned into a month.
