Have not heard anything since last year. Do we ever know what happened to him?
The last post I saw linked to another forum. The gist was that Dr. Williams had medical problems and was in an assisted living setting. I have not seen that confirmed or denied.

This is from July. No further news but this looks legit as they are posted by his local folks.
Dr. Williams' website is still active and appears to have been updated in the recent past. It has "new" tags with posts. It also states that his daughter, Heather, is helping with the business. Note that the address is now in Hyde Park, NY.
We'll know more when someone has the time to call the new number and inquire.
