That's not a problem at all

Is phonebush still actively posting on the CAG forums? Last I heard he had some health issues (may have suffered a mild stroke - not sure)?

Don't really know about Phone, Newt. Now that you mention it, I don't think I've seen any posts from him lately, but I also haven't seen anything posted by anyone else about him. I'll keep an eye out . . .

I had a look at the site & the forums yesterday. Haven't been on in well over a year (maybe even two years) when there was so much cat fighting among a groups of supposed grown men that it wasn't any fun.

Saw mostly new IDs so I'm thinking of getting back on and maybe even renewing my CAG membership.

If phone isn't still around, the place has lost a real character. Think of Chesters1 with more tall tales and a mid-west accent.

Sorry that the "infighting" on the Forum drove you away. I've gotten involved in a few somewhat heated discussions on there myself, but the good things about membership outweighed the bad for me, so I stuck with the Forum. My club membership is permanent anyway. (Got a special offer from the Michigan State Chair: permanent membership in exchange for talking-up CAG like crazy to my customers. ) I'll just make sure to never share bank space with those people I can't talk to without starting a fight. The CAG moderators have had to really start watching the Forum closely lately becaus some VERY touchy issues have surfaced over the past year or so. I hope you join us again, and we'll all try our HARDEST to be NICE!
