Goodbye, old friend. You had been my lifeboat many times in my career. I don't look forward to posting only in the BMC communities and having my epic rants censored when BMC makes a bone headed decision to change the platform without consulting us, or roll out patches that break our systems and make our managers start uttering the most hated words in our universe: Service Now. I will miss the independence of our community. I look forward to seeing some of you at Engage and having a farewell toast to our little corner of the Internet.
