Turning off the lights at factory

Well, I'm just letting you know that I won't be around here anymore. It was great to hang out and talk shop on a semi regular basis but I'm retiring from active duty.

Take care everyone.

Bummer. Sorry to see you go. :ponder:

Hope there's nothing seriously bad behind your leaving. But best wishes nonetheless.

Thanks, no there isn't any associated bad news. I've accomplished some things that I had set as goals back in 1982. :ponder:

There are a few negative things, like not getting paid for some projects, but mostly I did it for fun anyway. The other negatives are the lack of excitement these days. Most of motivation has to come from within. I haven't been aching to make anything for quite a while and things have been pretty quiet recently. So I'm just going to wander off and spend a little more time on the other hobbies. I've still got quite a backlog of other projects to get working.

Glad to hear it's nothing "bad". I've certainly lost interest (and occasionally had it return) in various projects and online communities over the years.

And on the plus side - you live in Seattle. Man, I miss living there.
