Franc, did you even bother to read my very first post within this thread, post #456895, especially my fourth paragraph and my last sentence.
Apparently, you also didn't notice that the real intent of this thread was to initiate a hypocritical personal attack on me, Dave K. and Jim, after he said he was outta here... yet hung around for days to make lame replies and check for fawning comments from well wishers and those who also happen to dislike those of us he personally attacked. After all that, you seriously expect us to give our best wishes?
I could easily wish Drew well, and even forgive him for his hypocritical personal attack upon me. Many times, I have thanked him for sharing his research and knowledge of Damascus with us. But I see no reason to believe that he even thinks his personally and obviously biased flaming was unwarranted. Even his final reply to me was more of the same.
I'll just bet you'd wish me well if I did the same to you.
