O yes, he is. He's not only irrefutable, he's also incorrigible.
Anyway, he's not going to stop lurking until he has at least ten posts in this thread to see what we think of his departure.
And in the long run, he'll be back. And welcome.
(Sorry Mike, for my derogatory remark the other day. You're an OK fellow. See you around some time.)
