Well American Boyfriend has an awesome job he loves and stock options still vesting and I'm going through a "career transition" so...

Or if we can't make that work we've talked about both of us moving to the UK or Germany.

My totally unconfirmed suspicions are that he is a very well-informed Burner, maybe with connections to the Borg hierarchy, and once the debate over Borg ethics and behavior entered critical mass, him being also smart, decided to take a bow due to perceived conflict of interest. At some point in this argument it developed into defending the Borgs actions or not. Taking sides, many of us came out and declared which side we were on, while the pro-Borg side kinda danced around and changed views faster than a sparkle pony changes costumes. He didn't. Coming from another Burner, his views were right on, but at some point those views coming from someone connected to the Borg, without saying so, could be seen as more smoke and mirrors and unethical side-stepping. I don't think he wanted to be part of that. Could be totally wrong, probably am. This is no slight on him, more a compliment. He would be the only person in this whole mess who recognized something like that conflict of interest.

bbadger is not connected to the bmorg anymore than you or I.

He has very strong opinions and can express them quite well and without fear.

The working theory is the board ran out of italics and until more have been ordered and installed, BBadger thought it best to take a break.

FWIW I enjoy his antics and miss the lad! :mrgreen:

Okay, always thought he had great input, as I said.....but who mentioned fear? I accused him of being smart and ethical, but interpretate that anyway you like. Anyway, yeah, you know him, have a better answer than my speculation, so where is he?

And I may be wrong, but I am not, some of us "you and I" actually have closer or more distant interaction with the Borg than others. I don't think I'm too off to think that very informed and active people within the Burner community have interaction with the overall organization, without it being perceived as a slight.
