What happened to Maury Maille?

Geez, what’s happened to Maury? Did he refuse to stay on after Tom and Ray hung up their coveralls? Is he ill? Did he get canned? Did he retire and start living it up like Wayne Newton, lounging in some Caribbean villa on his generous Cartalk pension?

Used to be that when you answered a puzzler, Maury sent a nice note explaining how answer entries were processed and judged. Now it’s just Tom and Ray sending out these messages…

It sounds like Paul Murky and Marge Innovera are still there, Shirley Wright is also. I hope Maury’s ok…
