Very sad. I always liked his work. It seems to be a hazard of being a comedian that many end their lives this way, either by accident or choice.

Oops. Well, guess this is one of those cases where it was better off *not* being the early-bird. The question makes more sense to me now, anyway.

No rebuke meant. I was just trying to clarify the rational behind the question asked by susan_cassidy. Mr. Williams will be missed by many.

Robin Williams dead ...
Robin Williams was found dead at his home in California. He was found at 11.55am Monday, local (US) time.

It appears to have been suicide.

He was 63 years old.

What a talent!

Vale Robin Williams ....

He did a stand up routine at my university in 78 or so. I met him in the union cafeteria that morning. He was going around table to table and doing a short minute or so improv. An amazing talent. I'll never forget the show that night.

For all his comic genius, I still love the movie Dead Poet's Society the best of all his work.

Such a sad news. I can't wrap my head around it yet. I'm one of those who grew up with his movies.
