Funny you would say that.  Too soon to say but something may indeed happen...

Thanks.   

Tom, Hope is good medicine. Some will say you can't do this or that. Some will say beware of this and that. Some vary learned will predict this or that will happen. Though they may be correct, they may not. This is where hope lives. Nineteen years ago I was told I had MS and to prepare to be in a wheelchair within a few years. It was a dark time for me. I am pleased to say I still work full time without a wheelchair. After I told a friend of mine that had come through a very hard time looked at me and said one-word FIGHT! 


If there is anything I can do please let it be known. I will continue to pray for you, Brian and Sean.

Tom, This is sad news indeed. I haven't been around here long but I can say confidently that buying from you was one of the best things I ever did. I hope an alternative to total closure can still be found so that what you've built over the last 20 years can be carried onward. Thank you for all you've done.

Thank you for everything you have done Tom. I appreciate your vision, and making it happen. Bringing this forum, and group of techs together is no small feat. You should be proud of what you have accomplished. You made a positive impact that improved not just directly the people that use this forum, but the customers of those users, and anyone else they may also pass knowledge onto.

OMG!!



not sure what to say except I wish you the best man.

Everything happens for a reason..I hope for the best for you!
You are the godfather of the Oscilloscope for evah

As the first domino to fall in this weird time, I want to say thank you to everyone here for everything I've learned, whether or not you know it, I probably learned something from you... (Except that slacker Spence... Had to throw one last jab...)

Seriously Spence, I really appreciate you taking the time to screen share with me on a Sunday morning a long time ago... taking time out of your day to go to your shop just to show me some of the ins and outs of the NVH. It really helped a lot.

For the rest: I know I probably wasn't the best person to talk to if you needed a screen share, or if you had questions, and I apologize for not being able to help much, if at all...but at least I was honest in saying I didn't know, or "Ummm....Let me transfer you to..."

Although, I take (took?) a lot of pride knowing I was able to get all of you whatever Pico accessories/scopes you needed as fast as possible, in most cases in the mail that same day. A few times we were dropping off your package as the door was being locked! I did my best to keep you updated on the status of this freaking WPS backorder, or anything else we had in transit from Pico. Apologies if you fell through the cracks.

Can't say I'm looking forward to the next chapter in my work career, because I'll seriously miss the email exchanges and phone calls from some of you, along with the random BS sessions here at the office. But I am curious and anxious what the next chapter brings.

Thank you all for teaching me a TON over the past couple years whether you know it or not. I didn't know what I didn't know until I knew I didn't know it...

I will still be on the forums, but like most work relationships, I wouldn't be surprised if I'm eventually on here less and less frequently...

P.S.S. (P.P.S. ??) Tom has allowed me to keep my forums superpowers, so don't go talking shit about me after I'm gone....I can still boot you if I want! 

Hey Tom is there a possible way to continue on with Group Therapy so we keep learning from each other? I think if we all come together we can accomplish alot.

I beg to differ... This lad is in the little league when it comes to busting mine.
