In addressing the Cobain suicide only, I can say only this:

You are aware Cobain had written a song for the album In Utero entitled (but thankfully never recorded), I Hate Myself And I Want To Die? Are you also aware Cobain attempted to kill himself with a drug overdose a few months before?

Sorry, hon, but if Cobain did not kill himself, then neither did Budd Dwyer.

Read the links. Read the toxicology reports, and tell me how Kurt could have injected THAT MUCH HEROIN and then aimed a shotgun. It doesn't happen that way.

BTW, you have FReepmail... or soon will have.

You're not only a stirrer, you can't even get your facts right.

You are aware Cobain had written a song for the album In Utero entitled (but thankfully never recorded), I Hate Myself And I Want To Die?

Actually, no, he didn't. A record company exec or journalist (I forget which) asked him for the title of the album and it was an off the cuff, black-humoured joke. Cobain making fun of the whole musical angst thing, if you like. Self-deprecating humour? Almost certainly. An announcement of his impending death? I doubt it.

Are you also aware Cobain attempted to kill himself with a drug overdose a few months before?

Horsehooey. He was admitted to hospital in Italy a couple of WEEKS before his death, and the media jumped on it as an "OD suicide attempt". A man with that much access to high-grade heroin would not take a couple of pissy aspirin or acetaminophen and expect to die from it. Get real.

By your posts on this thread you have revealed yourself as both insensitive (towards me) and ill-informed (on the topic at hand, which was Nirvana).

Whatever your bag is with people who commit suicide, don't drag me into it without having the basic decency to introduce yourself and your agenda first. As it is, I am now too angry at you to care what your problem is...
