The world's light has dimmed -- noticeably -- from his passing.
A man that showed social activism and personal beliefs were
bound by human compassion and humor.

pre80s he was. since the 90s he was mean & bitter. it's too
bad that biting wit & satire had to be reduced to just plain
meaness. but i blame his heart problems...

Last night while sitting in my chair
I pinged a host that wasn't there
It wasn't there again today
The host resolved to NSA.

Yeah, I agree. There was a very noticeable difference in the 90s.

I'm sad. I have a lot of fond memories of him and the effect he had on my
life. 2 faves are Meatcake and the pile of lost stuff.
