He should also take into consideration that just because we aren't constantly mentioning him in conversation, that doesn't mean we don't want him back.

For example, I wish Ziggy Stardust would return as a regular poster, but I don't mention him in every other post I make; it's not because of indifference -- there's just not much impetus to bring him up in conversation when he's no longer an active/lingering presence here.

I believe he was primarily venting at me and had no intention for his words to have any real substance here...in hindsight that was probably not a fair post to link to. Yet you might understand my decision to do so...I detect in Trident a certain petulance that might lead him to lash out in such a way so that he might say exactly what he does not mean simply to have an effect...but I may be wrong...certainly if he does occasionally read posts here as he claims he has no good excuse not to clarify the matter...I will be more than happy to supply a new apology... ;-)
