Okay, sorry but I just have to vent. I have loved this guy since I was a 11 year old misfit undergoing daily torture in grade-school. But how can you be so f**king brilliant and at the same time be so emotionally bent? How could he have done this to his family? And his wife's reaction is so forgiving and heartbreaking ... And I get the sinking feeling that he KNEW, he KNEW, that his legend and reputation would only be enhanced by this g**damn act. Arrgh, I'm going to bed - the world is making me tired. Thanks for letting me vent here.
