Re: Remember Jim Wierich? R.I.P.
Am quite ignorant of this man's work, but at least recognized the name. A sweet tribute noted at http://www.neo.com/
Seems that he was a Teacher, thus quite beyond ... even a Zen-grade coder. So for many of you, this might be an equivalent (for me) of hearing that Sergei Nakariakov had been crushed in a VW-Beetle somewhere :-/ Condolences.. so young; maybe took less care of body than, mind(?) as one responder opined. He looked older.. Startled.. to see this entry in the links above; poster's Icon is from a Vincent! (petrol tank) Synchronicity yada

ÂThere is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge. -- Isaac Asimov |

And only 57, too. That's no age to go.
