I see no evidence that there is a lack of respect here, in the least. Remember, you admit to having never followed his work, so it's a little hard to have the same perspective as some of us do.

As it lightly touched upon, at one point he was basically dead broke, and couldn't continue his journey. He was supported by small donations, provided by loyal followers (myself included) until he establish an income stream by using his blog to generate income, also provided by loyal followers. For some, it's a bit of a shock to go from supporting a guy who enjoys and appreciates his followers, to one who needs to note that he has a secret blog, and nobody is welcomed. So, if George wants privacy now, that fine. But with little background, it's a bit of a stretch for you to deride members here as "pouting" and not "respecting his privacy". I wish George all the best, and deeply appreciate the many years of time and effort he put into a great blog.
