Anybody have any idea how "Advisor Guy" is doing these days? Seems like he's not been on here in some time.

What about Carleton Hughes, he is MIA as well.

The downside of being in the same place for so long, we have lost a few members over the years.

I thought Advisor Guy was in pretty good health the last time he reported on it.

I've been wondering about Carlton. His health was pretty precarious I believe.

Oh really? I suppose you could reach out to him via e-mail. It would be nice to know how he is.

Well someone logged into Carlton's account a few days ago. timewiseclocks@yahoo.com is his email.

I think advisor guy could no longer afford internet.

We gotta take up a collection

KarTek, below, is correct. The guy was here several months ago. I tried to help the guy earn some money, but he never responded to my offer.

He told some tale of woe that involved his health. Tragic to read.

Yup......

Well, that may be, but after reading a few tyrannical posts elsewhere on the Net, *health* wouldn't have even crossed my mind.

Why don't you try something new, and UNDERSTAND WTF you're talking about??

Carleton Hughes is not the guy you are ever so ready to 5hit on.

Fer chrissakes... what a pill...

"Advisor Guy" was an unemployed, middle eastern descent guy from Arlington, TX. The Carlton, that Tom mentioned was from New York. I guess there's another guy that's trying to be located here too, from all the different ppl being mentioned.
