This reminds me of something...
I'm not saying anything happened to Corsair, but:
BF has a friend who he e-mails frequently, and they go to the same tri's and races, etc. He didn't hear from her for months. Then, out of the blue, he saw her at a race. She'd been hit by a car, seriously injured, woke up in the hospital with no memory of the accident, and was unable to write. Creepy. You never know what could be going on when people disappear. (She's fine, now.)
