There was a great post this morning titled "Farewell Whazoo" and while I was trying to submit a reply to this post, all of a sudden it disappeared. Perhaps it was the Moderator tampering with it to remove any mention of "Whazoo" from the Forum. It is a sad day indeed when a person cannot reply to a post just to have the post deleted within a matter of minutes for simply remembering and honoring the man who brought great joy to everybody with his humorous dialogue and wonderful mastery of photography. What right does the Moderator have in deleting a post by someone else for the reason mentioned above for simply wishing a fond farewell? Shameful is all I can say.
I also think that bka0721 has the most accurate assessment, opinion and statement regarding Whazoo's reason for leaving and like the rest of us will surely miss his trip reports.
