Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Throwing up a few prayers for his safety. 
Hopefully that will make him mad enough to come back and fuss about it.

Pete was always kind to me- I know a little bit about him personally - and I really admire and look up to him- I do miss him here. Please Pete- know I am thinking of you.

Me, too. I hope he is just taking a break.
That’s what I thought but even though he said that he would still occasionally post, but it has been a long time and I also hope he is OK.

   There was a time, I'd say 8 years ago, I guess, when @sneakypete was so adamant about MUSIC being a presence on TBR.  We were between software upgrades, or some such, and someone convinced him that we had to back up the Music Archives every night, OURSELVES!  He soon recruited me.  You can still find them:

I've been  :0001: for @sneakypete for awhile.  I know he's had some very serious health issues and some close calls, so I hope that he is ok.  If he doesn't care to come back to TBR and post that's certainly his choice, but I wish he would at least let us know that he is ok.  He's been part of the TBR family for awhile and I miss him. 

Hello @sneakypete you are missed!!!

I’ve followed his cancer journey here, so I know that he was suffering. Suddenly, he stopped posting about his journey

Under those circumstances, you fear the worst

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Indeed.  He's at times said he was going to be gone for days or awhile to get treatment and if we didn't hear from him to expect the worse.  He's always managed to bounce back and post here.  I believe that his ex-wife was helping to change bandages on his leg?? 

Problem is now he IIRC said he was 'lurking' so.... I would have hoped by now he would have responded, even if it wasn't in a positive manner.

Prayers up for you @sneakypete   No, I don't want to offend you, but prayer is how I deal with 'situations'.

SO that's good, he wasn't alone. But his name isn't in any online obituary I can find. Of course, SP, like a lot of people we know, probably fiercely guarded his privacy.

I don't know, and I'm not sure. I guess in the end he lived his life the way he wanted to and went out how he wanted to as well. But he wasn't alone when it happened.

Yeah it was troll central. I'm always struck by the fact that she had no next of kin, no friends, nothing. Blows my mind.

SP also had an account there, and some other folks that came and went through here.

There's no indication that I know of that he purposely left. His last post doesn't seem to indicate it was intended to be his last. So, it would seem likely that he's either incapacitated in a medical facility with serious medical issues or he didn't survive. If he's incapacitated, hopefully he isn't in pain. He's been through a lot and bravely faced it.
