I have a really bad feeling -- and I'm hoping I'm wrong -- that something happened with his son. Last we heard, his son had been sick and he was going to take a leave from the board. I don't think we've heard from him since. I've been hoping he'd check in, if for no other reason than to clarify why he stopped posting overnight. I sincerely hope it was just because he needed to get away from it, and not due to serious family/medical issues.
