You are one of the prominent personalities on this site, and one that I always look forward to hearing from. Your honesty is a strength, not a weakness. Your desire to share your opinions with others is noble. Your decision to leave the forum is one made for your own reasons, and not for us to second guess. I hope you will take a break for a while and then find your way back to us. Perhaps, after a while, you will have an overwhelming desire to once again share in our discussions and put forth your thoughts for all of us to take however we so choose, and in doing so, come to the realization that not everyone will find favor in your words. But, if you can make a positive impact on even one other person, then you have gone a long way in helping someone else to enjoy the thrill that this sport is to so many of us, all over the world. God Bless you, Barry!
