Still look at the pod occasionally, but usually keep signed off.

A open minded person would take that opportunity to reexamine their beliefs and either learn something new or else realize that they were right all along and be able to clearly articulate why they are right. Nobody knows it all. There's no shame in being wrong, as long as you are willing to learn from it.

Well, the last thread he participated in (besides this one) is
http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=6314http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=6314. It's an OLD thread circa 2004, but it seems I had resurrected it (perhaps a poor choice of words) in June of 2011. The conversation eventually turned to evolution, creationism, scientific method, etc and then, quiet.
I see zero evidence of any effort to "squash his right to speak", though he would likely find the conversation as disappointing now as he did then.
spudcon, come on back. I'd love to read what you have to say.
