Thanks for your address Mary Lou, and I am indeed sorry to hear that the mod family has lost a member, but I must say that I agree w/ TranceAm on some level, although TA, your post is pretty antagonizing.

Personally I have just about lost interest, but I think this issue has the possibility to be very harmful to the entire PA community.

I'm now almost certain that this is the result of something mundane and likely a private matter concerning the mod family.

However Simon was the one who made this public and is at least somewhat responsible for all the fervor that has resulted.

I know that this sounds like a childish request, but I think that in order for this public controversy to be put to rest, I think a mod must explain why Simon quit exactly.

I'm sorry for contributing to the controversy but this is how I feel.
