Quite unfortunate, but I understand. Though, it’s doubly sad in that he probably just gave that creepy nutjob exactly what he wanted but I’m also aware of the emotional toll having a dedicated troll can take.

He is reconsidering after getting an outpouring of support. I hope he continues,

I’ve checked from time to time to see if the Taking Note blog had come alive. Today (1 December 2020) I see that the blog has been removed from Blogspot entirely. The blog is still available on the Internet Archive.
Manfred’s voice on this topic is still missed.

I’m one that read it, loved it, and was sad to see it go. What I DIDN’T know is that he went on to write 143 additional posts over the next three years! I have read dozens of these so far. In case others didn’t know…

URLs to his archives by year (after the goodbye post).
Don’t navigate using the “older posts/newer posts“ as it won’t work. Use the year/month/post menu on the right side of the screen. Gotta love the Internet Archive.
