Oh my God. This is terrible news and very freaky. He killed himself 2 weeks ago?

In Southern Slayer's profile, it shows he posted five times on Jan. 11, about 2 weeks ago.( http://www.fireflyfans.net/showprofile.asp?u=3282)

Furthermore, here's an old thread extremely weird in a bad freaky way. Posted 4 months ago:

http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=2545


I'm really freaked out right now.

It is a pretty disgusting and demented thing to do, going to a discussion board and pull an ignorant stunt like this one. What w/ Lux passing away a few weeks ago, this is a real sick prank.

Glad to see that you are well and still w/ us Slayer.

WTF?!?

(Points up to top of thread)

FireflyFanatic said she was a friend of yours and that you had ended yourself 2 weeks ago.

What in the special Hell is going on????

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."

I only use Haken's email to contact him. I sent a private email to FireFlyFanatic trhough FFFn and it didn't bounce. Haken can get the address, plus information gleaned from the IP address and time of posting can give us an exact address. Is what he did legal?

Does somebody talk to her regularly?

So while we are still on this topic. Is it really okay to go thru someone else's private diary, mail, letters, papers, computer files, including the websites they visited, once they have pasted on?

Privacy is no longer an issue for the deceased. Really, it's a question to be answered by the living people involved. If you want to board up their room and never think on it again, or if you want to prop the body up in a corner of a bar and toast to it all night, that's your business.

Southernslayer lies motionless on a table in a torture room. A hulking figure looms over the prone browncoat, pokes him twice and comments "Yup. He's dead."

:fade to black for commercial break:

An old man in a precisely made suit leans down as Southernslayer, resuscitated, coughs his way back to life. "You died, Mr. Southernslayer. But if you die, we Fox executives can't taunt all of you about cancelling your favorite series, now can we...?"
----------

Yes, I've got a morbid imagination, to plaster this situation onto the events of "War Stories".

History doesn't always repeat itself. Sometimes it merely shouts "Weren't you listening the first time?!?" and lets fly with a club.

Since the dead cannot, the living must. I don't consider the dead "people". I show nothing but respect to the bodies and posessions, but they are only objects, and somebody needs to be responsible for them.

I'm really fighting the urge to be sarcastic here.

My thinking is that if it was private, it should be private.

If they safeguard it well enough, it will continue to be so.

And you can thinking about the person as they are without boarding up the room or tearing thru the diary too.

I was only giving a couple of extreme, real-life examples. Don't read too much into these.

It's difficult not to personify the dead. The closer you are to them, the more this will happen.
