I just got that too many connections crap and lost a very long post. I am really annoyed right now, but I know if I write these creeps, they won't respond, or they'll say they just had to do something for a minute and that I shouldn't get into a huff.
What I said was that Francois is an enigma to me. He comes here, posts endlessly, then leaves for months, sometimes because of a perceived tiff with someone, sometimes not. This is the longest he's been gone, but I don't recall any sort of tiff this last time. I never understand why people do this, at least the ones who leave for good. We've lost a few, like former dear readers Jay and Dan-In-Toronto because of tiffs that didn't even involve them, but because one of the tiffers wrote to them and kvetched so much that they took sides, which is fine, but left in a show of something or other. But, people come, people go, like Grand Hotel. Nothing to be done about it. The disappearance of Rodzinski is stranger to me than all of it, frankly. TPunk comes and goes, but Rodzinski has seemingly disappeared for good, and for what reason is anyone's guess.
