I've talked with John by email a couple of times today. He said to tell everybody, Hey! He's doing well, and is in PA at the moment. I won't get into his personal life, but it seems like he's in a pretty good place right now. I hope everything works out for him like he thinks it might. It sounds like he has spent quite a bit of time scuba diving in the past year.
On a side note, he said he recalls some members here having coal-fired forges they were seeking fuel for. He has access to some coal where he's at and, if anybody wants some, he would be willing to bring a pick-up truck load back with him if you will pay for the gas it costs him to haul it - probably around $150. Let me know if anybody wants it. He needs to know before next Wednesday.
