A very, very important person to me and this board has left. I have talked, shouted, screamed and done everything I possibly can to try and convince him to stay. Short of going to his home and chaining him to his computer I don't know what else to do. I will give it this one last shot and perhaps the collective voices of his friends and fellow members here may convince him otherwise. I have never gone to these lengths and have wished those well who choose to move on, but in this case I will not accept his departure.

Sasa is everything good and right about this board. He is a man of great character, depth and talent. His contributions here are vital and relevant. His DD unsurpassed by only a member or two in the time that I have been fortunate to be a member. It will be a crippling loss to this board if he moves on and I am certain....more certain than I have ever been about anything in my life, that everyone will agree.

If after you read this post and see the feedback that is for YOU.....AND YOU ALONE Joe, I hope that you will reconsider and assume your place here again.

I'm sorry my friend...you left me no other choice.
