PP Blog site closed

Hey,

I'm a long time lurker, and believer in the PP. I read the entire book like many of you and have listened to some of the old HB radio show archives. After a long break away from the PP family, I've noticed the blog is closed now. I was some what heart broken, I loved the yearly updates on the portfolio. I also noticed the old Harry Browne radio investing archives are down.

Does anyone know the reason behind this? If you didn't come to this forum pre-blog closure, I think it would be hard to find this forum and like-minded individuals. Is there a way to contact Craigr?

Craigr's around but he's moved onto bigger and better things. But good point about the blog closure and lower traffic. There may be a correlation since it's been increasingly dead around here starting around the time the blog did shut down.

I'm surprised no one has started a similar blog on the PP. There seems to be enough interest out there. Perhaps?

While it covers a lot more than the PP, Portfolio Charts does manage to talk about the PP quite a bit. ;) It's no Crawling Road, but I like to think it carries some of the same investing spirit.

This forum is also quite quiet recently. It's a pity since it's critical IMO to have a supportive community during the rough times in order to stick with a portfolio such as PP.

I guess the forum will be quiet until gold surges again. Is that fair to say?
