RETed and NZConvertible

Haven't been on much lately, but just curious if anyone might know what became of these 2 members. 42,000 posts between the two and both dropped off early 2009.

Thanks guys, glad to hear he's doing fine. Wealth of knowledge between these two, so when they stop posting the mind tends to run wild.

i think ted said about 2 years ago that rx7club has too many inexperienced people acting like they know what they are talking about, bad mouthing his work and claiming that he was an idiot.
i dont remember if thats what i said, but i definitely remember him ranting about stupid people before he left

I figured Ted had just worn through the "N' and "O" keys and couldn't post anymore.

I'm sure it had something to do with the DAILY asking of questions covered extensively in the FAQ and the FSM.

Ted has no patience and gets a bit tore up over things. But he's chillin at RCC and is still as irritable and knowledgeable as ever.

I get good advice from Ted on RCC. I just wish there weren't so many panties wedged in cheeks over all the drama.

Come to think of it I've had my confrontations with Ted as well as Jason, but it was always good in the end. Some of Ted's comments were direct and to the point as there was no way to misinterpret his view. Actually at times the response was quite comical.
Thanks again guys.
