His last port was in July 2010... not exactly recent.
You mean "post"? How about this post? Or, is this a different guy with the same name?
Sorry I meant post.

I guess he just busy and doesn't have a lot of time for MINDSTORMS any more.

He is after all a full-time professor of physics. My last contact with him was Dec. 2010.. Think about it. The time between now and then is the school year. My guess is he'll be back as soon as he's done grading finals ;)

Have a nice day,

Actually, his last post was April 30th, 2011[1]. Brian Davis is still quite involved in Mindstorms, but he does most of his interaction with the NXT community via consulting, mostly with students if I remember correctly.

[1]Since I started reading TheNXTStep back in 2007, I've read every single post and I remember the more important ones back for at least a year ;).

You have admitted to being off topic. Therefore, your status of "to-be-banned" is maintained [or reinstated, take your pick]. Furthermore, you lose, sucker! :lol:

No more "off-topic-ness" from you, or your status will be altered to "to-be-double-banned".

I'm afraid SOME people soon may find themselves on the working side of a banhammer as far as I know Mightor "the-Mighty-holder-of-the-Banhammer-Award" Xander from a very capricious history ... :roll:
(Admittedly as a result this forum will be quite extinct then for the future.) :o

maybe we better stop the chattering :oops:
