This is not true.  I was in New York and tried for 
a week to meet with ntk.  I offered to go anywhere in the city at any 
time, and calls to my cell phone were answered immediately or answered 
within a few hours.  At one point, he committed to go to the center at 
"3 pm Saturday" and mwolson agreed to be online at this time.  Three 
came and went, and ntk showed up late in the afternoon after not 
returning several of my phone calls that day.  And, if I remember 
correctly, on that trip he didn't even do what was asked of him based 
upon the detailed list of instructions that mwolson prepared.

I count at least two "rushed" trips to Peer1, when he did subpar work 
at a time different than was agreed upon in advance.  In fact, I can't 
remember one time recently that ntk was on time to do anything at 
Peer1, and I subscribe to the sysadmin list and read every message.  
Mire was in trouble, we needed his help, and it took much longer than 
necessary.

I don't want to get into a protracted argument about what happened in 
the past at the expense of a discussion about how to proceed in the 
future.  But, Michael, you've got your facts wrong on this one.  Give 
it up.

Again, I like ntk.  This is nothing personal.  But to pretend that 
nothing is wrong with his availability lately, or to suggest that we're 
on some sort of crusade here is patently ridiculous.
