Well, Tom, he was a fairly regular poster in this group, and, as such,
that makes him part of what can be referred to as the community of rbr. If
some other members of that community choose to make note of his passing,
why not? Perhaps Keith did things for entertainment or to make a living
that you don't approve of. Fine - you don't have to note his passing. But
why does it bother you so that others choose to, to the point where you
criticize them for it? Apparently you think that rbr is only allowed to
note the passing of people on the Tom Kunich Approved List.

Bravo!, and thank you Howard.
Keith was a person who lived life to it's fullest, and followed his
convictions. You may disagree with him, but that's never wrong. That's
what made this country.

I'd really be surprised if he was getting together with you on
anything.
I don't think you and him are ever going to agree on anything.

I'd compare Keith to another person I think is a legend from NY,
That's Indian Larry. They both walked their own path and wee incredible
artists.
