I have looked over the various threads that you have originated in the last few days and I would like to opine:
Your post inititalizing threads seems to me a bit "thin" somehow. Good ideas, but nothing to chew on, if you see what I mean. This left others to fill in the blanks that you did not agree with. You are self-destructing and are now trying to burn bridges behind you.
I suggest a good vacation - perhaps a month away from work and eBay and mostly - any computers. I suggest that for one week you burn the candle at both ends partying, then one week enclosed in a dark room without a television -- perhaps a good book or two to swallow your mind. Finally, a week or two of outdoors exercise, like hiking or rock climbing and being sure to find a way to tan a bit. Finally, put more Real Life into your schedule and less computer/business time.
I've had this same problem before on a number of occasions (burn-out) and as a workaholic, I have to schedule time away from the computer.
Then, come on back to AW and make your posts that most of us all enjoy so well.
Fair enough?

Actually, Borillar's idea is not bad! I found with all the outages, complaining and hassles of trying to be online last week, I just turned the &^&^& computer off and got back to reality for a while.
Found it quite a refreshing break. With the lure of the computer gone I did all kinds of fun and interesting things that had been on the back burner for quite a while. I also got some real work done.
Also pointed out to me that it's not a good idea to have too many eggs in eBay's basket, or anyone elses for that matter.
