IIRC, a few years ago there was a gap and the theory was that the person who had done it passed away. Then the “gifts” started again, and the observers who spotted the mystery man thought that he walked “younger”…so somebody appeared to be taking over.
This is definately one of those things in life that should remain a mystery.
