Strat ops, pilot down

Well, as I said in my last post, I was sitting in a deployment station in a doctrine Harpy, ready to undock. However, I had just missed a huge engagement earlier in the day, and things went quiet in Delve for a bit. With no fleets running, I decided to jump clone back to Deklein. For one thing, I don't normally have a block of time early in the work week that I could give to a fleet op. But I might make a special effort to do it, because I really want to fly in a CFC op, and the sooner I jump, the sooner I can jump back.

My EVE time has been constrained by having houseguests as well. I've managed to distracted-rat for a couple of hours. I had some other tasks to take care of some alts, as well. Sorry to be vague, but it's probably best not to go into too much detail about that for now.

We had a report on the KarmaFleet subreddit that one of our pilots had a stroke this week. He and I had actually been chatting a good bit that day, talking about VNI fits, damage types, etc. He was trying to rat in a Naga and getting only 249 dps, which makes for a pretty poor isk/hour. We're told that he has some impairments right now, but I've known stroke victims before to recover a lot in the immediate aftermath of their treatment, and then have to really work for improvements after that. It's a hard road. As I said in the thread, all my best to him and his family in this difficult time.
