I will probably hang around - I got pissed (hope I can use that word on here) over this incident - but will be very careful about asking questions of the group in the future.  I guess I can hope if I have an issue that someone else will haev the same issue and let them ask the question.

But Bob did have a bad habit of "packing up his toys and going home" FREQUENTLY.  It didn't take much for Bob to get angry and leave, only to appear again days or a week or so later.  It's just his personality, and if I had his resources I probably would either be a deep lurker or not here at all.

Called Walter Carter for to borrow a spare as he lived in town, and within 2 hours the Magistrate called me to say "a guy who looks like Ronald Reagan" was waiting for me in the lobby.  Walt not only brought me the belt, but had already put it on the car for me while I was working.
