Anybody heard from Sheldon lately?
Maybe I just haven't paid attention, but I haven't seen anything from
Sheldon lately. I know some of you keep in touch by email now and then. Anybody heard from him? I know we have our little battles now and then, but I hope he's not sick or something. -- The Doc says my brain waves closely match those of a crazed ferret. At least now I have an excuse. |

I haven't been as diligent as usual, keeping up with all the stuff going on here, but I have to to tell you - the last time we had had it out, I was just a little bit worried about him - I seriously don't set out on purpose to tick him off, but it just didn't seem normal, for any of us. I know some some of you think less of him, but I like the guy and probably always will. He reminds me a great deal of someone in my family that only a few of us understood enough to realize that he was so many light-years beyond our intelligence. Sorry - I like him, and I just wonder a little bit if he's OK. He didn't answer my "ping" but I know he hates pings with a passion, so that's no surprise. Just curious. >Since almost the entire ng took his misbehavior on, he's sulking. > > >jim -- The Doc says my brain waves closely match those of a crazed ferret. At least now I have an excuse. |

AlleyGator, Since you were so worried, I looked it up for you. Since
yesterday morning, there were four of Sheldon's posts. I hope that this will set your mind at ease. |

... > [..] I haven't seen anything from Sheldon lately. [..] He posted something out about you - internationally - that was not only offensive but actionable (if you were of that sort). The generic "information" he posts is easily found and quickly verified (or vilified). I don't see any value-add to singling him out as a prize poster. There are SO many other rfc'ers that don't have to work at being genuine, likeable, or interesting. The Ranger |

He is rude, crude, and the most insulting and demeaning person I've ever encountered. There is nothing positive he could offer to offset those issues.

Do *you* sulk on a message board? Perhaps he's been busy? Perhaps he's not in the mood to post? He has actually been posting, but apparently not to your liking?
