someone@some.domain - 06 Apr 2009 03:29 GMT
i've written to bill b's family at his address. i am hoping for a positive
reply, so please observe whatever you believe in the form of positive energy
for his well being. no jokes about killing goats or whatever, i'm very worried
and hope that our kind and decent friend is ok.
if you are also concerned give me an email address and i will give you his
address to do whatever you need. i will also post when i have info and do the
same if you email me.
this was so sudden that i have grave concerns. i hope it is just illness and
he will be back here soon.
thanks, folks. and thanks to mj rudy for the sound advice.

Good News - I managed to trace a member of Bill's family and
apparently he's O.K., just without internet access for a while.
Hopefully he'll be back with us soon.

Give it up, a.shole.

Take it easy - I believe the OPs concern is genuine, and if you were
aquainted with Bill and his recent circumstances you might share it. I
only wish I'd taken time to check up on him sooner rather than hoping
others efforts would be successful - I'd have been more at ease with
myself.

I have read his (Bill's) posts for a long time, but obviously asking for his
personal information via the internet is ridiculous. This "someone" could be
a creditor, a wacko, or a stalker. No friend would intentionally reveal such
information.

This "someone" poster also said he had Bill's address and had sent him a
letter, and then the next post asks what city and state? Does this make
sense?

It sounds like phishing to me, and not particularly well disguised.

just get off the boat?
i do have bill's address, and about 50 of his favorite music cassettes that
i've been turning into cd's for years.
you're just angry because no one notices or cares if you're gone.
you're alos too dumb to know what i was really asking. m got it right off.
i've never seen a post from you that wasn't negative or pissy. good show.

Hey moron, you can put me in your killfile any time- you're one of the
reasons why ebay is going down the tubes- who would want to buy anything
from such a jerk?

Sorry, I don't know, and wouldn't disclose it on this group (or any)
if I did.  We've only ever communicated by email or via this group,
and as I don't disclose my precise location and Bill only knows me as
Moramarth I feel it only proper to grant him the same privacy as I
prefer myself.  Hence my identifying my contact only as a family
member, and not being specific as to whom.  On reflection, had I not
posted in haste to reassure you, I would have been even more
circumspect.

Moramarth

i think he may be doing better than dial up. i didn't press for details being
busy with relief. his family can be of concern but that's not a topic here.
do you still have my email, jules? give it a shot so i can re-index yours?
we need a better support sytem, perhaps.

He has DSL if I remember.  The email address I used for him was from
that type of service.

Gosh, folks, I'm feeling a little embarrassed to read all of this.  
I had DSL up until 2004 but when the kids moved out it went and I was on
dial-up.  I just lost that about a month ago and was awaiting the son's
promise of re-connecting me to his DSL.  If you're surrounded by the
natives and cut off don't count on my son to get the cavalry to the
rescue in time. ;)

So what's happened?  I wasn't going to go into it but my mother passed
away Jan.1 at the age of 95 and there have been lots of domestic changes.
Sorry, Jules but the phone numbers changed here and you'll have to
contact me by the vze3 address for the new one.  Since I'm on DSL you
won't be getting any busy signals anymore unless I'm yakking with someone
else.

Thanks everyone and sorry I didn't get to alert anyone about my dropping
off the face of the world.

I did manage to actually spend some quality time at the workbench.  Maybe
I can get something finished this year.

Bill Banaszak, MFE Sr.
