From the This old house WEB Site FAQ:

Where's Steve Thomas? After 14 years as host of This Old House and contributing to the successful debut of the brand new series, Ask This Old House, Steve has decided to explore other opportunities and challenges. Steve is pursuing creative opportunities that will enable him to do more in front of and behind the camera. Although we're sorry to see Steve go, we're excited for him and wish him well. His departure is completely voluntary. Steve has decided that he wants to apply his considerable skills and talents to a new chapter in his life.

On 4-Nov-2003, "John Foote" quoted:

That's the boilerplate every company uses when they fire some bugger. The higher up the feeding chain, the more flowery the praise. I've seen them write that about guys security dragged away.

I'm glad to see that the website has now acknowledged that Steve doesexist and that the past 14 years were not a figment of our imagination. And because they chose to include the sentence about Steve's departure being voluntary, I now tend to believe that he wasn't fired after all. So I would conclude that the producers must have pissed him off enough to make him quit.

Sounds like what my boss said after he canned me.

I caught Steve in a segment on the DIY network.
