There was a discussion on one of the other forums (I think it was the 67-72 guys) regarding "missing Bill". It was reported there he was on a well deserved vacation and there was nothing to worry about.

Rumor has it that he has problems with his computer.

I hadn’t thought much about it, but I did send him a PM that I never received a response to. Glad to hear that it sounds like he just fine!

I haven`t talked to him so I`m not sure but think it`s just a matter of programming with his computer.

My impression is that Bill doesn`t respond to PM`s, likely he`d be totally over whelmed if he did.

I've always been amazed at how he is able to respond to all the questions. It must be close to a full time job for him.
His knowledge is such a valuable asset to everyone.
