I just posted about this in the depression forum, but Angela made me aware of the thread here ... I am heartbroken that one of my heroes chose to do this to himself. I seem to be fond of a lot of artistic types who end up doing this, though. I wonder if my being a fan of someone is a curse? ;-)
I'm going to go grade the papers of 19-year-olds who never heard of the guy and are all the poorer for it.
