I normally don't post these kinds of issues, but I am seriously worried about this guy's well being. We used to talk at least 4 times a week and he has all of a sudden disappeared. Last we spoke, he was suffering from severe depression, and I am really worried. I and a few others, have not been able to reach him here or via email, so if ANY of you know what is going on and if he is ok, please let me know. Sure, the guy was annoying at times, but he is a human being and very caring when he was not going through so much bs.

to take a break.............

At one time I was much TOO involved with TER and the hobby.

For a period I just went cold turkey and did "normal life" for several months.  Really it helped a lot.  

I hope everything is OK with the guy and he is just taking a breather and returns to this hobby soon refreshed and recharged.

I sent him a PM and an email to his gmail acct.  No response.  Last I heard he was in Alaska.  I will try and make contact`again

not his hobby email. I knew he was thinking of taking a new direction in life, but he usually talks to his friends.
