Hey guys I just had to put up this post after making phone contact with our friend and fellow moderator Walter White Tail!He has been absent from the board for many months due to taking on work in Afghanistan.On a lark I decided to try and call his cell and he actually picked up the phone!We spoke for around 10 minutes or so before he had to hang up but it was great hearing his voice and knowing he is doing fine.He wanted to send his regards to all the hyperboard users.I certainly look forward to the day he returns and is back home here at the mlhh.Certainly a much safer environment:)I know some of you may not know Walter but he has been a great supporter of this site.I know I'll be glad the day he returns safely back in the US:)Anyway it was such a surprise and I'm honored to let everyone know of my contact with him.Cheers all!

Aw I forgot about WWT! I remember seeing his posts very often when I first started lurking on here. Glad to hear he is OK thanks for sharing.
Mark, Very cool!!
Do think about Walter from time to time.
Glad you got in contact with him.
peace, jonalbear
Hi Mark,
Thank you for your update on Walter, and I am glad he is doing OK, and of course, I look forward to having him back with us once again.
Also, I would like to thank you as well, for calling me last evening, to fill me in on the details, and it was a genuine pleasure chatting to you.
Take care,
David
Hi David,
Yes, it was great chatting with you last night and I'm glad to have not waited any later being you were in another time zone one hour ahead of me.I had not even realized that but thank you for talking with me anyway:)
I was very surprised when Walter picked up the phone being I was just taking a chance making the call.I can't even imagine how that cell call connected from where he was located.You gotta love technology sometimes:)Hope you are having a nice Sunday my friend.

Thanks for the update, Mark. Looking forward to WWT's safe return.

Hey Mark,
I never met Walter White Tail, however, he does stand out for me for this reason. I looked at the members directory of MLHH and I think that Walter is the closest to me geogprphically. His location is described as the Southwest Desert. I sent him a message so that we might exchange emails. I hope that we might connect face to face.
Have a great Sunday.

Hey Mark,
Thant's wonderful news to know you spoke directly with Walter -- I miss him!!!!
I hope that he occasionally has time to at least lurk on the board here now & then; but if he doesn't, he's still in our hearts, as I know that many of us think of him frequently.
Thanks for the update, Mark!
