				So long....
			 
			
			and thanks for all the fish. and thanks for all the fish. Due to......events sadly out of my control i'm going to be doing some unwanted globetrotting for the next couple of months at the least thus as you've probably already noticed (although my spot seems to have been taken by some more rabid lefties with a perchant for second rate english) i won't be around for at least a while. Before i head off into the ether to seek my fortune........ Special mentions... Syc - for being a legend Dave - For finding at least one thing to agree on (out of a few thousand) UT - News freak, for paying for all this (expect a donation soon) Xumagad - for doing a better job of my side of most arguements - a sad loss Griff - dito (except for the loss bit) Juju - for the highest sage remarks to post count ratio Slang - For making me laugh and no doubt another 20 i've forgotten over time Best of luck to you all and i feel safe in the knowledge that whenever my life stabilises a little this place will still be around offering undoubtly some of the best discussion and (although not always) most level headed debate on the net. cahtch yuo ruond!

			Have fun! Make sure that you have your camera situation (film/space) adequately set up, take lots of pictures, and don't spend too much time in the smoggy cities! (I noticed MaggieL's curious absence) |

			Gee, by "globetrotting" do you mean "three months in state lockup, assuming time off for good behavior" or will you actually be on the lam?   Whatever you are doing I hope that the experience is rewarding. Do check in from time to time, if possible.

			I haven't been around long enough to know you well, Jag, but since all these other estimable folks are gonna miss you, well, I will too! Have adventures, come back with tales of mystery and imagination.
