Bob,
Jim's profile shows only his activity on ICW since the forum works under the "Simple Machines" software.
http://www.ibanezcollectors.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=6163But shortly before that, he answered some of my questions about "The Untold Story".
So, that was in the 2nd half of 2007.
According to his profile he posted 72 times, possibly 144, because he was registered twice on the same day.
I have no judgement about how Jim spends his time, but I can understand that as a head of a guitar company he needs every minute of his time for his business. I even saw that his Ibanez website was for sale a while ago...
So, he's very occupied and he won't be getting any younger either...
I suggest that we give him a break, one as long as he needs...
and keep in mind that we should honour our "old farts", because they have 1st hand knowledge, while our knowledge is in fact 2nd hand.
Cappy knows a lot too, but the difference is that he chose to retire and because of that he's more available... while JD still has got a company to run. When the moment has come for him to retire also, his ICW room will be intact and his bed spread... just like he's never been away...
So, patience...
Ginger
