I was gonna e-mail him privately in the next couple days :)

But I think he'd rather hear from you.  Shoot, I'D rather hear from you
:)  I can't believe he would unsubscribe out of annoyance for anything
you said; I think you were one of his favorites.  I am SURE I remember an
old post of his saying he was gonna be incommunicado for awhile, though. 
Of course, it is possible that time has come and gone, and he's
unsubscribed for good now.  

Unfortunately, I've lost most of my mail to this account dating back more
than a month or so, so I can't check myself.

HOWEVER, I do believe it's possible the sheer frustration of having to
deal with snail brains, poor spelling and grammar, and constant
misunderstanding finally caused him to evaporate in a flurry of
spontaneous combustion.  

Never realize how much someone means to you till they're gone, sniffle...
