With some frequency we have active members for years then they just drop off. When they drop off for whatever reason, believe it or not, some of us start to worry. Life happens when you are making plans. Illness, death, lost interest, and everything in between.
I have a few phone numbers of members and a few have mine. If you develop a good bond with a member, share your number. If somebody goes MIA and does not respond to PMs maybe you can call them to check on them.
Arstaran, Dwight, and I are looking for somebody now not responding to PMs. If you don't care that anybody here knows about your private life, disregard this rambling. If you have friends here that matter to you, swap numbers and emails. That way one is not in the dark as the other has a major life problem.
Just my thoughts on it and no, don't send me you numbers, I don't like anybody.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

who are you looking for?
Well, actually JR, I had sent Ron a PM this morning asking if he had any idea about Keith's absence from the site for the past half year or so. And we kind'a came to the conclusion that it probably wasn't because of "Mr. Egomaniac" here with his oh so rude and unfunny posts(that would be me  ) kiddin' the poor guy and pissin' him off enough to make him want to leave for good. Nope, his last few posts had him soundin' happy as a clam in general.
(...and so we just got a little worried about the guy and hence Ron's thread here, that's all...isn't that about it in a nutshell, Ron?!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Keith s wife has had health issues. He didn't elaborate and I didn't press for details. And that's all I care to share.

Aah! That could possibly explain his absence alright, Ryk.
(...thanks for the update)

And when I visited with him last June, she was having some problems. I think there was a potentially serious/risky surgery in her near future. And, if all goes well, he talked about a possible long distance move. AND, he inquired about how I built my elevator, so I sent him some basic plans. Hope he wasn't crazy enough to USE them!

Me too. I have an old cell# of his, but it's missing a couple digits. Timely post! Some of us are friends on Facebook too, which can be for better or for worse

Maybe he did use them and that's why we haven't heard from him!  
Seriously I hope all is well with him.

I'll comment.
I don't think Keith would mind me saying just a couple things to let everyone know how he is, and I SURE hope I get it correct.
We last corresponded this last New Years.
He is well, Anne-Marie is well. His mother passed in late September.
He has been busy with Anne-Marie, friends, family, grand daughters, music, life in general, and numerous home projects.
Please don't ask me for more info., as that is up to Keith, and Keith only.
I sincerely hope I haven't overstepped my bounds sharing this.
I truly admire the ol' goat, and would never want to share anything he wouldn't share himself.
I believe he's just busy, and sidetracked.
And you may see me tonight
