Yeah, the difference is that he seems to have at least found a topic to
vent on that someone actually *cares* about. I remember that he used to
post 10 page screeds here that were almost without exception met with a
resounding "so what?"

I happened to be on a 1 year c.l.a hiatus when he left. What actually
did it? Was it the dropping of the mandate? That should certainly have
taken the wind out of his sails. (And quite a lot of wind it was too..)
