Maybe he is working in -hidden mode-.
Perhaps we have matured and then this is the first forum in the world that not need admin...
Speaking seriously, we miss him so please JMI, change to -GOD mode-.
hobferret, I know one method to know if he is still online, put the same post 15 times full of offtopics, if he reads it, it will not be able to stopped himself.
BTW: I hope he is ok too.
