Oooh! Quitting Cold Turkey!? You are going to be missed Tim! You have been a steady, reliable and wise / clever voice on this forum from as far back as I can remember (I started with an Avio in I believe 2000 - whenever they first came out). You have helped many people in the Casablanca community. And I am sure the company has appreciated (at least most of) your input.

Good luck on whatever new endeavors you indulge in, and enjoy your extra time. I can't imagine your mind or fingers being idle for very long.

Hi Tim,
sorry to read your decision.
Have been very instructive years from 2005-2010 for me,
you helped a lot.

[TimKennelly]

Thanks guys for the kind words.

I mentioned three years ago when I retired from UPS that my new career would probably require more of my time resources and so I would be cutting back on video.

This is just a continuation of that.

I have been very successful in my new field and the compensation is far better than I ever have or ever will get out of video and that means either video or family gets put on the back burner.

No contest.

That said, I plan to continue to participate here and on the List as well as attend the March Get Together in 2011 for the social side of visiting with old and new friends.

Ultimately, I will pick up video again when I decide enough is enough with making money (LOL), but because of that I decided I was better off selling the S4000Pro now to someone who can use a current cutting age solid workhorse and just buy whatever is current at the time when I come back to video.

Tim,

My best wishes on your new life goals and expanded horizons. After reading your letter telling of your future plans, my mind wondered back to the old days at the beginning of the forum and how simple the Cassie system was at that time. We had a great time solving problems for all the new comers to the forum and I shall cherish the first time we met in person at WEVA in Vegas.

I want to publicly thank you for helping get the "March Get Together" off the ground. Allowing me to advertise that you would be there for several years helped get folks to attend, just to meet you, and in doing so, they found that the value of the MGT was also an advantage for them. I am glad that you plan on attending next year as well.

Here's hoping that our paths will continue to cross...... pleasantly as they have in the past.

Your friend,

You have helped me many times in the past Tim... thank you so much !

[TimKennelly]

Jim,

Thank you for the kind words, I would like to reciprocate them.

In the first two months that I started posting answers to problems many times you would post as well, usually with the same fix as normally (but not always) there is only one real "fix" and then the guy with the problem would thank you.

I would think, what the hell, that is what I said and I said it first (you always have been a night owl ), is my post invisible?!? LOL

I quickly realized I answered with the solution and you gave the person how to actually do/use the solution.

It totally changed how I posted as I realized many times the only ones who actually got my early posts were those who did not need the answer.

So I changed to giving far more explicit answers, step by step whenever possible as it only makes sense that if you are going to take the time to help it is only help if the person understands the answer or solution.

This actually has really improved results in my current job as well.

Communication is key.

I also emulated you, by changing my handle from using Ok2bclever to my real name after those first two months and I believe our doing this was a significant factor in the old BB becoming and remaining the "friendliest forum on the internet".

I don't think I am much of a draw any more, if I ever was one, but feel free to use me for 2011 as I mean it that I am coming.

Lou, you aren't rid of me yet as I plan to hang here still as even once I have sold my unit I feel I can help with advice for quite some time yet.

Syl, you are welcome and I probably still have a few solutions in me. LOL

If any of you know someone that has been sitting on the fence about going to the third generation machines let 'em know I am selling mine.

Ok2bclever@yahoo.com

With it being the higher quality original industrial unit (S4000Pro) and fully loaded it is a killer value compared to buying a S4100 or S2000 with little software.
