Anyone know where Tarca (Tom) is?

Hi Team,

I haven't seen Tarca on the forums the last few days, and he hasn't replied to a PM i recently sent him, and I was just wondering if anybody knew what was up? Hope he's all good!

Cheers,
Pie

I'm not close with him so I can't say. Probably just taking it easy, being summer & all. We should all grab a cool iced tea or lemonade & plop our asses down in some lawn furniture for a couple afternoons.

Hey, Andrew!

From what I know, Tom is very busy right now and rarely has the chance to stop by the forums. He took over the race stats for me early in June while I was away, but I haven't seen him around since then.

Hey Pie!

I'm still around. Getting more round as the days go by as a matter of fact.

I lurk mostly to see if there is any news on BOINC and the end of Seti Classic...

Things are real busy at work. As you remember I relocated to Los Angeles last year and found a job as a systems engineer for a start up company. Heh we were running something like 5 calls a week. Now I'm the Service manager and I have 5 techs working for me and in the process of hiring a 6th. Needless to say I'm busy beyond belief. Average 60 hours a week and don't have time to check on Anandtech everyday.

The other thing that keeps me busy is the Beta testing I was invited to do on Blizzards new MMORPG WoW. I play a few hours every evening and a good 8 hours over the weekend. It is a great game and Blizzard is doing a great job developing the new game.

My wife now makes comments like oh am married... when I actually make it home for dinner.

Tarca is still here.

I now I know not forgotten

Be careful there... you know what almost happened to Engineer, and what happened to Dave.

Anyway, glad to see you stop by. Don't work too hard.

Glad to see you're still around, Tom. Don't forget, all work and no play makes Tom a dull boy.
