RIP Don Cornelious

For the record, I didn't intend to make any apologia for suicide. I don't know why Don Cornelius did it or how his physical and mental health were at the time. My point was that he was a man probably near the end of his life anyway and suffering incurably. I don't know and this is just a guess. But I made the Kurt Cobain comparison because Cobain was a young man who left his wife and small child behind, and his suicide was a far worse crime. Unsurprisingly, my saying that has provoked no controversy at all.
