What happened to FMC400

Haven't seen any posts lately from FMC400. Any news or updates. He was the electrical guru that has helped many of us. Where is he?

Wondered that myself. His terse style is fun to read.

"Your next reply must have voltage readings from points A and B, or I can't help you." LOL

I contacted mikeo0o0o0 a while back and asked that same question. I was told by Mike that he (fmc400) is doing ok, just very very busy with work....

Un-like "Montana Highboy" and his "terse style" of comments, lol. I guess he went to feed the horses and is still MIA?

Yeah, he hasn't been around since Dec 16. The last time I talked to him he told me that he had been appointed the design team leader on two different projects. He said that either one would be really time consuming, but both at the same time is a killer and he was looking forward to the challenge. He also said that because of his assignments he had to be spending time in China.
Yeah, the place ain't the same without his expertise and unique way of looking at things.

While using the advanced search to help diagnose my ignition issue his (fmc400) posts came up a LOT!

Even though he may not know it he helped me tremendously. It's a shame to lose such a valuable resource.

I've been trying to contact him myself and have had no luck. The last I heard from him, he was swamped with work projects and was having to spend time in China. But that was last year, I haven't heard anything from him since.
I hope all is well for him and its overwork, not something serious.
