stuveltje - remember a lot of people got scared out of the biz about a year ago with 2257, and there are always people that have personal issues that come up and they have to leave quickly.
There has always been a quick turnover in this biz which is why Ive always held the belief that someone starting out now has just as good a chance at succeeding as someone that started 2 years ago
Ive had a lot of friends in this biz that have had to leave for a variety of reasons - some never even had a chance to say goodbye but there are always new people that come along that are just as good - heck Ive had times when Ive had to be away for a few months at a time and Im forcing myself to actually do anything in the biz right now
