Hehe, some people can leave the S2K boards for 3 weeks without being noticed that they're gone...

Cycloneye can't be absent for more than 3 hours before we start sending the helicopters on him :lol:

Just got news that Cycloneye is not human. He's a robot.

He's been programmed to stay off the board for a few days for maintenance...

Don't panic he's alive. Sorry he isn't a robot. He is at a get-together with a group of members of another weather forum in Puerto Rico.
The forum is at:

He is ok. I was in that meeting. We were celebrating our first meeting as a group. It was great to shake hand with Luis and then listen a hurricane conference from the National Weather Service subdirector's, Luis Mojica.

Ok folks I am back after my absence for one day. :) As Fego said I was at a gettogether of our Members who are living In Puerto Rico and we haved an excellent one. The conference with Doctor Mojica was a very educational one and I learned some things that I didn't knew.The meeting came to an end very late and I was very tired to come to computer and that shows that I am human. :)

LOL! Actually, I'm not even that good! It was Babelfish. I think their translator needs some work. Ever tried translating a phrase from Spanish to English, then taking that translation back to Spanish? The well-known saying "it loses something in the translation" really comes alive!! I yearn to learn Spanish!

Anyway, glad you guys had such a nice get-together. I know how hard Dr. Mojica works, he is very dedicated. Everyone at NWS is always singing his praises!

Where is

#19 Postby Fego » Mon Aug 15, 2005 10:59 am

Btw Luis, Dr Mojica was called by the NHC headquarters to help with his knowledge and with the media during Ivan or Charlie? I think he said that.
Another very interesting comment from Dr Mojica was the commercial ship that was trapped inside powerful Isabel's eye.
