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 know.  That would be nice.

Have not figured out how to do that and make recordings available.  The video processing and compiling is all very time intensive.  Soon there will be no one to do all that. 

They also need to all be secured in the Group Therapy volumes so they don't get stolen.  That process takes a couple of days of work too.

Maybe if we had guest presenters every time and didn't record them or do anything with the recordings?

Hello Tom,
Is there anyway or software or programs that we could use on the members end to record GT session?

AND still keep things secure??

How's things on your end?

None that I know of.  It is quite the process and requires many different apps.

We are all well but we emptied the office to be safe as the spread of the virus is accelerating here.  Plus the governor ordered most businesses to close.  Brian is working from home.  And...  I am home.

But you are only 30 feet away  Smiley

Just like me when growing up  Smiley

It sure was hard to have to drive somewhere to go to work.

I had been searching for someone to take my place, bring new energy to Autonerdz and take it to the next level.


I wish you could have found the person you were looking for to carry on your legacy.

But anger is futile as it solves nothing


The large hole in scope training that already exists was bad enough, but this is the one place I could send someone knowing, with full confidence, that they would be better served than some random facebook group or YouTube.  Gonna be tough recommending someone else.  I hope Mick and Michael can pick up Pico distributorships, if available and if they choose.  I'm assuming Lee is still up and running in the UK.

I must retire.  Let’s just say doctor’s orders. 


Enjoy!  You've earned it.  Smiley  "Hoka hey", Burps at Bears!   Cheesy

The whole situation makes me happy and sad. I'm glad that you are getting to retire, some close members of my family never got a chance for that, Although the circumstances of your retirement may not be optimal or how you may have drawn it up, Its going to happen and I am happy for you.

I've had the pleasure of being a proud Autonerdz picogroup member for about 7 years, I have learned so much and still do.

I feel like I've gotten more than given, but I will keep on trying to balance those scales as time allows.

The sad... All the people, mainly the newer members that will never get to experience the full power of the "koolaid" with the leader stepping aside.

I'm grateful for everything "Autonerdz"

God Bless you Tom

Tom,
Like everyone else I am happy for you that you are getting to retire, but also sad to see the business close. I wish I had the experience and knowledge to attempt to take your place, but those are some large shoes to fill.
  Thank you for all your help and dedication. My prayers will be with you.

If I may throw my ring in the had I vote to continue to have group therapy without recording it. I only had the opportunity to participate in the last two, but learned a lot.  We can always take notes during the session the old fashioned way!

The video work would not be difficult for me. I use to do video transfer and editing for a hobby. I’m willing if interested.

Thanks so much.  We'll see how thing shake out in the near term.  There are some other possibilities in the wings...

I would be willing to compile the Group Therapy volumes.  That only needs to be done once every six sessions and can be done as time allows...
