Ditto here. I appreciate Steve's insights, and have learned a lot from him. In his last message to me, he said that someone revealed his real name on one of the forum, and thus he could no longer post.
Another source said that he can no longer post because he accepted a new position in a company. In either case, we will miss his often colorful and strong opinions.
One of his last tip to me was for me to do a Bull Put Spread <VBG> on one of the stock for a 1/20 risk/reward ratio with, IMO, achievable break even point, but unfortunately, my @#$%&* broker required an arm and a leg for margin, and I missed that golden opportunity! I don't believe the opportunity will present itself again.

Tippett,

You are right Steve is a really nice guy. I had the opportunity to play racketball with him when I was in town last year. He is a very competitive person, but the type of person who would help anyone with anything, a very giving person.

He is very opinionated no question, but you always knew where he stood. He will be missed.
