First of all K.H. let me tell you that you are doing an outstanding job with the stats. You certainly are working hard to fill the void left behind by Graham.

I would not do any comparison between you and David or anyone else for that matter.
David has some kind of charisma that few people have. One I wish I had.

So please don’t take anything personal. There is no conspiracy against you.

Personally I an looking for a new team that would fell like the old MOT.

Gerald, “SeriousCrunchers” looks like the kind of team we use to be. I started to read their post and when I am finished I’ll decide if I join them or not.

Have a good weekend all

The only time I see any kind of conspiracy is when I look in the mirror in the morning and see proof that God does have a sense of humor No offense taken. If it's "personality" that fits your needs, go for it. I just thought that maybe David had been keeping track of something in particular or doing something regularly here that had gone by the wayside with all the changes.

Yea, I'd hate to see either of you leave, or anyone else for that matter. At this stage of my crunching, I have a hard time imagining NOT doing it. Something about the look on my wife's face when the specialist wanted her to see another specialist up in Philly won't let me quit crunching. Seeing a survival rate of 15 percent if it gets thru the eyewall does things to you. We were very fortunate that the specialt's specialist felt it wasn't cancer.....so we keep watching as the years go by. Bottom line is that you keep crunching. Whether it's here or elsewhere is icing on the cake.

I expect Graham will be back but I don't see me changing either. Fault me for taking life too seriously. Us senile old farts are a cantakerous lot. What I have liked here was that we have been a rather diverse lot. I have no problem with different perspectives - I've yet to find a one-sided coin. Everyone deserves my respect until they prove otherwise. I certainly don't have a monopoly on answers Still, as some have seen, I tend to have a low tolerance level for flamewars and personal attacks. It's not only about respecting each other, it's about respecting those so many of us crunch for. If MOT is not what it should and can be, I'll work to make it so. Why bother with a team at all otherwise?

If you feel you'd like the next level of entertainment, then by all means make yourself at home with a more active group. You'll be missed sorely, but it's not like anyone has an obligation to stick with MOT. I didnt join MOT for entertainment Although it was more interesting. We had about 15-20 members that posted quite a bit and everyone was really helpful and David A. was always in the mix of things.Now we only have about 4 people seems interested I am more of an introvert than extrovert so i dont have much input unless someone ticks me off. And do you know how much trouble it is to post pecking away with one finger and you can guess which one that is.Dave Bell was always dependable to post something every evening What we need is for our team members to make a little input once in awhile-did i spell that right? and thats another thing im raising my 15 yearold Grandson and i always have to look for the dictionary because i certainly dont know how to spell. So lets put it this way we need to be more like the family that it once was and if some of these people dont like that why dont they move on-i Hear Gay USA is looking for a few non productive members
