beautiful insight, Richard. Thank you.

Subject: OT Re: RIP Steve Jobs... What if he had never been?
I think it's an interesting and noteworthy phenomenon, how in many of the places I've visited online today where people were personally making an effort and in their own word memorializing Steve's Jobs' impact on their lives following the announcement of his death . . . and no matter what, there was always one person who pops up there who wants to piss all over the proceedings. That's humanity for you.
