We are listening. Of course you have complete freedom to make decision to leave. However, you will recall the many long, long posts which I wrote to you when I could have used time otherwise. You will also recall the many long, long posts which Martin wrote to you as well.

Thinking of that and of the very limited number of posts we have seen from johny, I very much encourage you to comment as much as you have can or can make time to do.

You may be uniquely qualified to offer him benefit. You are also quite capable of adjusting your attitude and keeping it “good” in spite of your concern that you might loose it.

So as you re-think your participation, consider the benefit you may offer which you may never know. Consider that you might bring a unique perspective to johny (or someone else) that could begin a journey for him of growth and enlightenment. The “profit” with your presence may be not only for you but for others which you motivate to think.

That you do not agree with someone or become disgusted with someone is not an adequate reason to leave. Even so, I would be first to recognize that demands on time and other obligations may well transcend any demand for time in this space -- this little world of words on a screen and a handle.
