Yes, tis true. One of the Adcoms has passed on. After several attempts at recesatation, it finally became apparent that any further attempts are futile. With much regret, I gave Ben the ok to ::gulp:: "pull the plug". I'd really like to thank Ben for all he did trying to revive it. He spent much time in an attempt to bring it back to life.

Hopefully the Carver TFM 35x that I have coming from James will fill the void.

    There is nothing anyone can say that can ease the pain of your loss. In time the message of it's passing will become clear and God will comfort you in his Glory as you search for answers. The time to UPGRADE is now upon you. May the new Carver assuage thee in your time of grief.
