Haven't seen Tom around here in a lllllong time
Yeah, I was sorry to see him get banned, too. He was a passionate and positive contributor!
This is dredging up unneeded scrutiny. Pumpkinman came and was well received and learned a lot quickly and was more than willing to share. He became a moderator, but his methods and beliefs about the direction of the forum split from what was envisioned by the forum itself. He was asked to comply with the forum leaders desires, but decided he didn't want to do it that way.
The short and simple explanation is that he is no longer here, although he would be welcome as a member. It is his decision if he returns or not. A lot of us certainly like Tom.

You guys (mods) ......!
Boy are you NOT getting out of the corner
Julie,
In New Jersey, the word "Guys" is a nongenderuos term. Here, even women call each other "guys". "Hey, wait up you guys!", for example, is just as likely to be spoken by one woman to address other women as it is for one man to address other men.
This aspect of our local lingo has got me into trouble before. Once, I was speaking at a convention in Texas, and one review of my presentation was quite put off by my use of the word "Guys".
On another note, the use of the word "Dolls" will more than likely get you punched.
Just because it goes on in Jersey does not make it OK!
If we were to follow the trends of NJ, we would all be making Jersey lefts (jughandles)!!!!
