Unfortunately for both wives and business partners, closest is the first

Paul McCall stepped up to help me out 5 years ago when a group of former

possible. I will always be grateful for that help and really the
support of all of you.
That storm cloud that followed me for 1366 days has been gone for a few
months now. I am under a confidentiality agreement and a non
disparagement agreement so not going to say too much.
The US involvement in WW2 was 1365 days.
So my war was one day longer than the US part of WW2.
The outcome was similar ...
Can’t say too much, but for the past few months this is what I have been
looking like:

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to jump in and let everyone know that we apologize that we are
no longer able to stay on top of the Amazon instance associated with the
list. Amazon has been great as a platform, it really has worked well,
all up to the point where the hackers have caused us more grief than we
are equipped to deal with any more.
For the record, AWS has been 100% (and I mean 100%) flawless in
performance and consistency. The problems a couple months ago and now,
are of a nature of hacks from the outside world, of which we were able
to mitigate them last time, and to some extent, again this time. My
main staff member who managed this, is no longer accessible to me, so
problem solving on these hacks has been slower and less effective than I
am comfortable with. Therefore, it seems beyond the scope, long term,
of what makes good sense for the list, for us, or for Chuck to have to
deal with.
Pride is a funny thing, but we actually took pride in being able to
provide the service, even absorbing the cost beyond what some have said
is reasonable. Likewise, we are also proud to see AFMUG continue at its
new home, under a new “group care” and our helping as much as we can
with that effort.
Thank you for being patient as we move this all over to a new home.
Paul
