Has anyone heard from Obi? He's usually posting all over the place, but I haven't seen any posts for awhile. Is he o.k.?

| He has left the board. Trying to get him to "return to the fold" but I understand why he left. |

My guess is that leaving here has something to do with the subject matter of this post. The last thread he posted, as I recall, was A different breed of terrorist...
It is sad, but - and this is just an educated case, based on 12, going on 13, years here - once a person leaves, they do not come back. A few have tried to, but I think it was never the same for them and they just faded away. Kind of like leaving home. [Though someone did just e-mail me recently that "there is no such thing as an EX-Mohicanlander".] Some truth to that!
In any event, I can tell you that Obi is alive and well and happy on Facebook. |

| As Mark Twain was supposed to have said, "Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated."...or words to that effect. Yes, I'm having a high old time on FB, especially tormenting a couple of people, 1) a certain read-headed Irish gal who now lives in Wisconsin (Lord knows why) & 2) my Granddaughter. Not to worry...I do drop by here every once in a while... |

Obi, as I posted in my comment in that thread, our replies were not directed at you!
Please come back! I miss you here, even though I see you on Facebook. It's just not the same.......

Cambridge Dictionary says:
Seconded verb to make a formal statement of support for a suggestion made by someone else during a meeting so that there can be a discussion or vote: "The motion was proposed by the club's chairwoman and seconded by the secretary." So there you are, Sachem........it is a word.

| Well, I for one as well am happy to see you, Obi! We have missed you! After 11 years on the board (gosh, has it really been that long, Rich?) I always miss it when someone leaves. Well, correct that, there was that one guy (Andrew?) that I was overjoyed to miss. |

I'm thinking you must mean Anthony. Oh, yeah. I think we were all very glad when he was banned!  |
