He's probably just busy...if he logged in last Thursday, I'm sure he's fine. The bus thing worked out as well as can be expected. He's back on his feet and riding, and there was a long thread about how the city gave him a nearly new, shiny, please-don't-sue-the-crap-out-of-us Harley.
However, now that I think about it, I haven't seen him around and about in a while, either.
