While HST was a drug-soaked, ranting liberal, he was also a genius (in his own crazy way)--an incredibly original, fearless, and prolific writer. Unfortunately, his "fear and loathing" finally got the best of him. Very sad--he will be missed.

He was an original and for that fact alone he will be missed, politics aside.

Agreed. He totally broke the mold with the stuff he did. It's sad...I just wonder why he'd finally off himself.

Very sad--he will be missed.By whom, exactly?
I hope by his family.
In 100 years, no one will have heard of him or read his books.
Maybe he just looked back upon his life and asked, "Is that all there is?"
Sad. Very sad.
