Many people disagreed with him daily, but it did not seem to phase him at all, and he didn't get nasty in response. This went on for months and it never bothered him in the least. So while we may or may not agree with his reason for leaving, I don't want people to have the impression that he was thin skinned or that he left merely because someone disagreed with him.

Frankly, for the contingent who thinks most or all of the Jodi thread posters are mindless cheerleaders incapable of rational thought, it is very ironic that you managed to chase away one of the few posters who regularly, rationally, and with good humor, was the voice of dissent. Well done.
Not being snarky , honestly...what chased him away then?
I give you props for being a good sport about some of the teasing - Ive had little contact with coconut , but he seemed ...flaky? for lack of a better word when I did encounter him outside the jodi thread
