The last post on Sic Et Non was 3 days ago, which wouldn't be noteworthy except for the fact that DCP has maintained a virtually unbroken string of daily posts for many years now.
Even the comments on his blog which have been flagged for moderation, which he normally quickly approves, have remained blocked awaiting his action to unblock them.

I certainly hope Dan is working on a very exciting project, and has not fallen ill due to his insane travel schedule over the last few months.
I'm worried about DCP. He hasn't appeared to be in good health for a long time. His travel schedule is insane and he never stops posting online, whether it be from Chico, California or Cairo, Egypt. For many years he has battled enemies and persecution, real and imagined but mostly imagined. He has sunken to unfathomable depths with the cleaning house of the Maxwell Institute and then risen to unimaginable heights with the Interpreter Foundation, FAIR Mormon, and the recent "Witnesses" project. And, just think of the stress he must feel at having to urbanely respond to almost each and every comment on his Sic et Non blog.
The totality of it might be overwhelming him. I hope he surfaces soon and lets us know that he is okay.
Another thing, without DCP providing venue and shelter, I am afraid that Midgley is going to fade away into the angry ether. And, I both care about Midgley and find him endlessly entertaining.
Please be okay, Daniel C. Peterson. Please let us know soon that you're okay.

Please be okay, Daniel C. Peterson. Please let us know soon that you're okay.
Seconded. As a person, I wish him well.

That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.
