   When Roy Witt died and I saw the first messages about it, I knew Witt   
   had so many enemies in Fido it would not have been beneath one or two   
   of them to start a rumor of that sort, taking advantage of Witt's absence   
   due to his illness. I stayed out of the first traffic over it waiting to    
   see if it would  turn out to be real or not.    
      
   In this case, Klahn hasn't posted in Fido in quite some time, but that    
   isn't really unusual about him. He usually gets his head handed to him   
   by one or another of his Fidonet enemies, and lays low for a time till    
   he either thinks everyone's forgotten how wrong he was on an issue, or   
   he thinks up some new idiot-twist to it and comes charging back with    
   more nonsense, only to get his head handed to him once more.   
      
   This particular `sulk' has been of much longer duration than usual for    
   Klahn to do a disappearing act. Typically, he's back at it by now.   
   Especially in regard to the controversy so-called `black lives matter'    
   stirred up.   
      
   This absence is not normal for him. Especially when seeing `my' name in    
   the *from* field in a message in his echo.   
      
   Something's wrong or he'd have come out swinging by now. Somebody should   
   check on him to see if he's all right.
