Capt'n,

A post I did for you in another thread was deleted by moderators.

Just to let you know, I'm aware of some of what you have and are experiencing. If there's anything I can do, let me know. I understand and hope that others will also. May all take a moment to consider what they say before making a reply to your posts. They might be much more hurtful than they know, and they could be ashamed if they knew the whole story.

Get well and stay that way buddy.

Sincerely,
Pat

Let me echo Pat's words above. All the best to you from us Downunder John !
Internet forums are often harsh and sterile places where people's comments, even if not meant to bite can be hurtful at the best of times.

All the best

I talked to Captnjohn via Email tonight.

He's OK.

He's hoping to visit one of the other prominent engine members near where he's at in the next few days and enjoy some engines.

Talks like there's another cool spell hit down there.

Says he'll get back on here soon. I hope he shares his visit with us?

capt'n,

Just read this post. Last I heard you were in Florida having a good ole time playing with your DLE 30. Hope everything is ok.

It's not for me to divulge what John may be experiencing, but trust that all of us would have a difficult time with a similar situation. For all of you that have posted so far, you've done exactly what I hoped you would do, and thank you. You've openly noted your concern and care for a fellow modeler even if there may have been differences in opinion in one area or another. That's who we are supposed to be, and hopefully John will see that he's missed and we all wish him well.

Miss ya buddy, get back here soon.

Pat

I'm praying for you and yours John, get well and get back in here, I can't do it all by myself. ;)

Hi Capt'n, We have "talked" here and realtime although we have never met. Sorry to hear you are under the weather. I sincerely hope and pray all is better. The offer I made for you to stay and fly here is open for you and yours anytime. The very best to you.

Sincerely,
SPACEWORM/Richard

Capn, please add me to the list of well-wishers. We modelers have to stick together. I look forward to you posting again soon.

I must agree, no one likes to see anyone who is having difficulties.

JNorton 02-26-2010 07:45 AM

RE: Captnjohn, Engine Guy
 
Especially because he is such a great guy. I've talked to him about engines and we've were trying to hook up to go flying together last year.

Hello Capt'n. As I celebrated my 70th birthday last night, I raised a large tumbler of Captain Morgan's on the rocks to you and your health. Stop by on your trip North and we will raise a few together. Take care,

Sincerely,

SPACEWORM/Richard
