Bob Sillett and I always had a good relationship, I made donations every year to him for SWLog. This time, he was gone so quickly that I didnt even have time to say goodbye. Bob, take that last donation I made to you and go get a nice dinner and drink on me....thanks for a great program!

His final post to his Yahoo group was that he couldn't reproduce the problems people were having with V5 and that he didn't appreciate the tone of some of the comments he was getting. The next day, the Yahoo group was gone. Too bad. The reason seems to be a bunch of non-computer users who were having problems and constantly bitching about them. I think he said screw it after all he had worked for years on that program and didn't like the tone of new users. I posted an email indicating that I would assist in troubleshooting but never got a reply. Bob if you are reading this thanks for the program and all the work you have done! Great job! Jim Douglas Sad to hear that. Bob has a right to be irrigated at all our kvetching. I was one of them. but I went back to version three and I am happy as a hog in slop and I said that on the list Too many of us aren't GEEKS and have no patience with a computer's innate idiosyncrasies (and I admit user-setup errors)and I think Bob shouldnt feel overwhelmed at being unable to get into each of our heads trying to solve problems I think my problem is centered around certain MSC services not being IN my computer making me unable to use some of the advanced software needed to make version 5 work I gave up and I guess Bob did too. I have been seeking a job for 3 months and I am over stressed. Bob had undergone a professional dry spell that was satisfactorily resolved as well. I got a job. Maybe we ALL need a break. . Perhaps that is a start over Yodar |
