Speaking of other web sites
« on: October 24, 2013, 09:28:42 AM »
Does anybody know what's up with Rich Grover?
His site
http://www.public.asu.edu/~grover/willys
is still up and full of great info.
It hasn't been updated in about a decade.
I've tried a couple times to email him at the address on the page. I get no response - nothing from him and no "bounce back" from the email server such as "username no longer valid" or some such thing. The address is still valid.
The Arizona State email server is just eating my emails and ignoring me.
He's still listed (as retired) in the ASU faculty and staff directory with the same email as posted on the web site.

Anybody know what's up?

Yeah, I did that same search. That's how I verified the email address.
I didn't want to make a phone call in case there was something going on in his life that I shouldn't bother him.

Does anybody know what's happening with him?

I think you should just give him a call. Sometimes it's the best way to resolve the issue after failing on all other methods. You have waited long enough, call him if your concerned about his welfare.

Interesting.
I've sent multiple emails to the address listed - it's the same on his web site and in the University list.
I've never gotten a response.
The reason I asked here was I figured somebody in the old Willys groups might know something. I don't want to bother him if there's some reason he's no longer participating in the community.
