I and this group would like to give our condolences to the family of
Eldred Pickett who passed away this morning from lung cancer. Godspeed.
Hoax post announcing the death of Eldred Pickett
A troll posted that sim racer Eldred Pickett had died of cancer. Several regulars quickly confirmed he was alive, having recently had email from him. They noted that the same troll posted this hoax about once a year and condemned it.

Well since Eldred was able to let one of the leagues I run in use his
server, and he mailed us the info, I'd say he's alive and kicking his
GPL cars to make them go faster. ;-)
Some trolls have no idea.

I know for a fact that this is not true (I got an email from Eldred
today). Evidently, this happens once a year or so, and it's always the
same guy that does it.

I gave up on Linux because ATI refuses to keep up where drivers are
concerned. I use Gravity for news and Thunderbird for mail.

ATI released a good set of drivers last month. Both xorg and xfree86. ATI

He can either confirm the existance of trolls or the existance
of god. Either one will suit me. ;)

LOL yeah is that like 2 or 3 times this year that the 'post' of his demise
has been slightly exaggerated?

Now Tony, that was a bit below the belt. Funny, but I'll wait and see
what Eldred thinks about it.
Rumors of my demise have been greatly exagerated.
