We have lost two Freds. GV27 and Fredv. Both are stellar Polkies that have gone by the wayside. GV27 felt that we wouldn't miss him, but I am sure that others feel the same as I do. Also Fredv has been busy. I miss both of them. They have helped me tremendously.

Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks
Ben

    He's fine to the best of my knowledge. I'm trying to go out there to hang out with him sometime soon. I think he's just taking a break from the interbuttz.

    (GV) Fred is one of the larger losses in the last little while here. He helped me and many with many-a project.

    I haven't done any projects but I do enjoy reading up on all of the cool and crazy stuff you guys do to push the envelope. GV27 will be missed even by lame polkies like me who haven't gotten around to upgrading the crossover on their LSi9's.

    Brain drain sux.

    Who is this GV27? Where does he live? I need to put some sense into him for leaving CP into disarray and mess!
