Let's just be thankful he's gone. Such knowledge as he had was not value for the rudeness.
The forum is much nicer without him. His loss seems to have mellowed many other contributors, myself included. With him not here to hand it out, there's no need for us to respond in kind.
Wonder if he's ruining some other forum somewhere? He was interested in cars f'rinstance. I have Porsches but haven't seen him. And ditto watches, Rolex.
