He was one of the most prolific posters on here, in fact I think he is still the top in terms of number of posts. He last was here in March. Just wondering if anyone has been in contact.
Yeah, I think of him often while browsing the threads. I check his profile once in a while to see if he's made any recent posts. It's been a year and he's changed his location to Michigan....gotta be a big change from Florida.we were sad to see Al go. I know he said he needed to spend more time with family and less online. The problem was he loved SMF and all of you so it was hard to not spend much time here so he gave it up all together.
I hope he comes back too.
I know what you mean. I used to smoke and post weekly, sometimes 3-4 nights a week, during that same time period. My wife thought I was spending too much time here so I vanished for quite some time. I'm glad to be sneaking back in to my favorite forum.
I fear that his extensive participation, long hours on the forum, may have become too much and affected his relationship with his Mrs'. I know it was a major complaint of my wife around the same time period, I had just become a Moderator. I too hope all is well but I don't think he will be back...JJ
Exactly right...his participation was affecting his personal life. I tried reaching out to him via email a couple months back mentioning the South Florida Gathering that He and I started but never got word back. He and his wife are great people and i wish them all the best. He is back in FL but I dont believe he'll be returning to the forum.

We can all be blessed with all of the knowledge that he shared that continues to be on the forum
