Greybeard's Fairwell (sic)

And if it's still there, the thread he refers to.

What was he talking about? (physical issues?)

Some mod(s) have gone a little crazy with the splitting out of threads - like pulling out Sue's sinus posts from the one on toddler tonsilectomy, and GB's feldenkrais posts. Seems kind of odd, considering they're usually looking to merge merge merge.

GB's posts, if you really read them, actually made sense. At least, they did to me. I just, most of the time, didn't want to take that time to read and comprehend. Should we let him know of our friendly crazietalk confines?

His passionate defense of Michael Vick was some of the best material ever to grace the pages of the DBR.

I think crazietalk should be open to any DBR castaway. But I also want that the Canes, Canes, Canes Devils fan to join.

Exactly.

I'll just defer to consensus.

As I posted in CB&B's thread, I have sent GB a PM inviting him here.

I sent an invite.

Me too. Greybeard gives good running advice!

Now THAT would be interesting...

Just a heads up to everyone: I've done a bit of housekeeping in this thread, mostly of my own posts. Anyone whose posts were deleted should have received a PM, and anyone else with questions/concerns should feel free to let me know. And then walk the plank. Just kidding.

Well done, and on your first day as a mod!

I feel so inadequate.

Can I use "FAIRWELL" in our SCRABBLE game, wilson?

GB is a genuine poster whose heart is in the right place, and whose responses are almost always spirited. MVick and Clemens come to mind, as does women's soccer. And of course, anything Cornell. I hope he will join CTN.

I would offer welcome as well. I can always use a Bob Dylan reference.

His post is still up (wow...they must be slipping)
I did note that he went out as 'Bobby Hurley' - I fine way to end a Kumquat 'career'

I noticed that too. I'm pretty jealous of that. I hope he never posts again, cause that's pretty cool.

His light is green, so Greybeard is online at least lurking on DBR.

Probably responding to PMs.

We want GREYBEARD!! I, for one, may need his Feldenkrais assistance soon.

In case the post goes away ( it's still up right now ), I've copied Greybeard's Fairwell post here:

I do not know whose idea it was to segregate the posts I have made with regard to physical issues posters have sought advice about. Nor do I care. To me, it demeans a very effective technology and have asked that the segregated thread be taken down. You will hear no more from me. As WC Fields once said, "you can't cheat an honest man, never give a sucker an even break or try to smarten up . . . ." Bye.
