I don't claim to know, but I'd think if he was, the homolobby would have been braying about it long ago.

One of the sad things about all the faggotry out there is that the concept of 'brotherhood' has gone by the wayside in the public psyche. There was a time when males who were good friends could live under the same roof without people assuming they were homosexuals.

Carver was an outstanding scientist with a passion for his work. Often that is incompatible with marital relationships.

If Curtis shared Carver's passion for his work, Carver may have left his estate to Curtis to continue it.

Thanks for a very thorough response and a quite plausible explanation. The rumors about Carver's homosexuality are apparently just that -- rumors promulgated by those seeking to advance the homosexual agenda.

I knew that FReepers would come through with an expert analysis and again I appreciate the time invested by Smokin' Joe for a couple of well-written replies.
