I've heard from him ... finally !
I've been trying to reach him for a while also, but only to bring some parts to him. Seems as if your reason might be that of a collection nature.
He gave me a story about the cable company redoing the entire block from underground wire to new and upgraded fiber optic lines..... still , whatever he's done ... I have no part of , or know nothing about.
This however , is the reason he gave me for his absence on the board.
Hope this at least helps, or alleviates the some of the situations you may be having.
PS ... Zod does know of a few guys with crooked noses who make it a point to collect monies owed in cases like this.

I've had to use them from time to time when some of my ebay auctions went awry.

Seriously ... He's a good guy, and he's never done me wrong. I would give him the benefit of the doubt, and see what happens.
