Before you all panic, no, I'm not leaving the SETI team! My work units will stay right where they are for now and the machines will continue to crunch away.

But I seriously need to take a break from the all of this before I go nuts and do something rash. The "family atmosphere" is great and all, but I just haven't been deriving much enjoyment or satisfaction from any of this lately. So rather than leave, I've decided I need a break; I don't know how long a break it's going to be, but I will occasionally "lurk", I may stop into IRC occasionally.. heck, I might even re-load UT and stop by the GameBox, but I need to get away for my own sanity's sake.

Congratulations in advance to all the new members and milestone makers who will celebrate while I'm gone.

Until later,
Rich

Sounds like we may need to put together an old-fashioned LAN party, do some good natured fragging, fall off some Quake III maps, and get some of this crap out of our systems. :D

Take a break, get some fun back! Us crazies will be here whenever you feel like popping in! :)

Take it easy Rich :)

I am still thinking about a dual Xeon rig, unfortunately my garage decided it needs a new roof first :(

NWM,

I can honestly say that when I took a step back and become mostly a lurker, I've felt a lot better about the online community. I hope you find a similar path.

It's the people we like the most that can drive us the craziest. Have a good break Rich.
