Jock hasn't officially "left", his user profile shows he's been checking in. But after the ugliness that developed in a thread that SPECIFICALLY asked for the advice of native Scots on their opinion of "outlanders" wearing the kilt I wouldn't be terribly surprised if we didn't see much of him for a good long while, and I can't blame him.

We're all poorer for his absence, if you ask me.

I might not agree with him 100% of the time, but greatly respected his opinion all the same.
