I totally understand your reasons for wanting to leave the board. My own use of these BBs has been quite sporadic and I do tend to take long breaks when I feel I am doing too much navel-gazing here and not enough real living in the real world.
Take care, and pop back and see us when you can. I've certainly found your insights helpful - you'll be missed.
