I certainly agree with everything that has been said in Don's favor and defense, and it would be a tragic loss if he were to leave the reflector permanently. Personally, I suspect he will probably reconsider and come back at some point in the not-too-distant future, and I hope that he does.
IMO, Don did nothing wrong or deserving of censure. Opinions have been expressed, some perhaps in a less-than-artful manner, but it's over -- and hopefully once everybody calms down, Don will be back with us. Hopefully.
