    Well, that is appalling news. Poor fellow. It's hard on the family when it is so quick (my Dad was the same), although much worse in the case of someone lacking AS's fine character.

    RIP.

This stands out on online forums, you know . I used to attribute it to him being older than his oponents. Yet now that I know that mature does not equal calm, I know it was a sign of a good-natured man.

      Rest in peace.
      Indeed. RIP AS!

        Sorry to hear this.

        He was one of the few guys here older than I am. Dang, the list is thinning as fast as my hair.




        Oh Frak! He was actually 5 years younger than I am. That is bad news.

            I shed a few tears for the man tonight, and my eyes aren't quite dry yet. Decided to look up what his last post was.

                I don't know that this is the place to discuss it, but Boxer was correct, ultimately.

                  Could we get off talking about Barbara Boxer? I just wanted to point out that going back to his last post made me smile.

                      Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                          Actually I got misty-eyed myself when I 1st read he died. Which is crazy since I never met him. I guess I'm a softie.

                            That's really too bad. It would have been nice for him to know how respected he was.

                              Oh, ****. That sucks. I didn't know he was sick.

                              RIP, Adam Smith.

                                I echo everyone else's comments - damn fine poster. I never met him in person, but I'll miss him just the same.
