    No recent appearances on that "What Drives Us" show? Maybe he's depressed about the 4th Gen Prius? I know I am.

    Danny has posted about junkets to Japan, yeah.

    Nothing about anything that makes a diff to the "common poster."

    I am feeling some of my father's 1960's-70's protest vibes.... Power to the People.

    Yeah, right! My guess is it would be down more often than PC is under the barrage of post; like a DDOS without the need for any 'hackers' to intervene

    One way or another, we all move on eventually. I suspect that that is what's happening here with Danny. Other interests, other demands on his time, illness, death? Who knows? But it would be great if there was someone with the time, skills, and Prius passion to take the baton. This is an amazing resource!

    He must have some interest to continue paying the bills for the site.

    True dat! If he had abandoned it, we'd all be in the dark by now, so to speak. Mysterious.

    to me, the most baffling thing is that he never gave the premium membership idea a go.

    I believe he has confined himself to a monastery after all of this.

    That's not too hard too figure out.

    As long as the ad revenue exceeds the operating expenses.......a little profit is all the "interest" he needs.
    Especially if the money keeps flowing in when he "invests" almost no time and effort.

    Not that any excuse is needed, but at the Official Prius Parade it was mentioned that a baby had been born and he couldn't make the event.

    Between direct deposit and auto bill pay, a few folks have gone dead for several years before being discovered.

    Social Security, pensions, annuities, royalties, investment distributions, etc. Many of us don't plan to work forever. And some folks actually achieve such a condition. :)
