Hi,

Nick by which places you've been walking? No other tournament schedule?

A little goog-fu shows his website's (spacious-mind.com) registration expired in October and has not been renewed. The last activity was just before it expired October 2015 when it was renewed.

For what it's worth:

The website led to a name, the name to a location and business. No obituaries for that name in that location.

Business information led to a transfer and different position for that name in another location half way across the U.S. No obituaries at that location either.

My google-fu says "busy with new job in new location"

I hope that is all it is...a new job in a new location. It would be a real pain to move 650+ chess computers to a new location. Praying that Nick is well and thriving and will get come back to this site soon.

Concerned....regards,
Dave

I sent him a PM many months ago but didn't get a response because he had gone missing from the forum.

not sure what Google moo goo "Fu" is ...but I can tell you that Nick used to post here even when he was away for business in other countries
I highly doubt rellocating to a new job in the US would prevent him from making a post or two here in over 9 months

Thanks Mike. I'm still hopeful of bringing good news about Nick's
whereabouts, and I've been doing a bit of searching. I don't know
Nick's age group, but I'm imagining he is a 50 something, or
thereabouts. For some reason I had him as a foreign born American.
