I'm not in a willy waving contest with you over supposed "loyalty" to Russ. I'd take out a subscription if I wanted to. And somebody else - for instance - paying my sub would hardly be an expression of my "loyalty". But all this is mere dodging. With the sheer hypocrisy of your OP in harness with the lecturing about people having to contribute to Russ' revenue, what message are you sending to [1] Russ, and [2] fellow members of this community? Is this perhaps simply an attention-seeking thread gone a little bit wrong?

Surely, that can not be true. It is a gb topic afterall!

Memo

"To my friends, for personal reasons I've decided not to renew my subscription which expires on January 6, 2016. To my almost friends, this will be my final thread on this forum for the foreseeable future. To Russ and his Admin Staff, thank you for an enjoyable experience since July, 2007. Kind Regards, GB"

___________________

To draw this conclusion overly simplifies the "health issues".

"... possibly longer due to health issues" refers to three issues: a) You're already aware of the post paralysis recovery nerve damage [neuropathy] discomfort along the soles of my feet which interferes with and limits my daily life activities b) Another health issue may possibly require reconstructive surgery and convalescence; c) The third may require hospitalization followed by extended residence at a nearby medical care facility. The purpose of "... a minimum of three and maximum of six months" is simply to lessen my participation on this forum while health issue decisions are being made. Next appointment with my physician is January 11, 2016, with Blood Work the week before. Please respect my wish not to make any further disclosure.

Thanks for your continuing interest in my wellbeing.
It's been awhile since you've created an interesting thread on this forum.
Isn't it about time to deliver one?

WTF! ... you type with the soles of your feet?
