Two questions - both coming from consternation
one
WHERE is the post from Elfin Yeti about bulls/ not political?
I wanted to comment on it, when I had the time to give it some thought, and now I can't find it.
two
WHY is nobody openly expressing that they are missing the contributions of WannaJumpMyScooter?
In a pm, asking where he is, he was vague about feeling somewhat POed at us.

Well, damn!

If we aren't confronted, I suppose that's his part. But if we don't express we miss him, how does that compute?

I'd hate it if I "disappeared" and nobody cared.

1. Resolving one consternation but not the other...
Here is Elfin Yeti's thread http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=280x76380


I've wondered where WJMS went but didn't like to fuss in case he was on holiday or something. I've no idea why he's PO'd. If I did something to upset him, then I'm very sorry. I greatly appreciate his presence here. He's one of the photographers here that I most look up to and learn from. Hopefully he will come back.

3. Thank you Tin, I must be temporarily struck blind.
You can find it and see it, so it must be there. I've never put anyone on "ignore" or whatever it is called, and if I did, it wouldn't be ElfinYeti.
Au contraire.
I'm going to now make some comment at your link, and maybe it will magically appear at the top of the threads.

About WannaJump: I hope he comes back, I miss him, and I hope by mentioning it I did not mess up.

WannaJump too. I miss seeing all of his wonderful pictures.

4. I miss WJMS a lot
I was gone on vacation early in the summer. When I left he was here, and when I came back he wasn't. I always wonder why people leave, but I generally don't do PMs or comment unless someone else brings it up. I figure they must have a reason, and, if they wanted us to know, they would tell us. :shrug:

But there is a big hole here without him.

6. I rue having mentioned it, because I wonder
if it may keep him from just quietly coming back and start showing his work and participate again.
I hope he will.

Your comment is sensitive and appropriate.
And I agree about the "big hole" in our midst.

7. regarding WJMS
as I understand it, and I may be wrong, but the POed isn't so much at us as at DU in general. I see him on FB pretty regularly.

:hi:

8. What is FB?
Please excuse my abysmal ignorance and curiosity.

I simply miss him.
For a while he posted a whole lot, just about always gripping images.

10. Thank you! Now I feel just plain stupid. I don't do FB -
I don't even pay attention to the invitations for "friendship".

Life is too short, my spare computer time belongs to DU, or private email.

11. I set one up for myself a few months ago
but I don't use it, I'd rather be on here or outside or spending time doing other things.
