I didn't want to log on today but after reading your post, I had to.
I am sad that you are leaving us...I'm not. You'll hear from me plenty at Newcomers, as always. I will just be posting my own sitch and updates over yonder at STBD.
Saddened you are never to be known as Changing Man again...Hey, Serenity: Changing Man was the Subject, not "who" I was. Just as Jumping in: First Post was the Subject of my first thread of 80 or so posts here at DB, not who I was.
I am - and always have been - Gardener (hey, didn't Spock say something like that to Kirk in two Star Trek movies?).
And besides - you'd never get rid of a verbose, long-winded SOB like me that easily!
Thrilled you are moving forward...Right now just treading water but that's okay.
Happy to call you my friend. And I you. ((((Serenity))))

How about "Changed Man"?
See note to Serenity, above, my friend.
And, I would suggest - for me at least - that Ever-Changing Man is the genuine approach - and, perhaps, the ultimate goal - in this Gardener's journey.
Peace.
