I've been in contact with kokopup. Bill is doing well. He does have a lot of construction projects ongoing SIMULTANEOUSLY and has cut back on posting here. He explained the projects in some detail to me and my only comment was "WOW". He does check in just to read a few posts and such.

He's been in contact with Wom and says he is okay and being his normal WOM. I think I found Wom on FB and messaged him, but have not heard back.
