Dennis F. has passed. I don't anything else yet but I'm sure he's appreciate the thoughts of those of us who knew him.
Let's stay on-topic, shall we ... as he's have wished, I'm sure.
I was really enjoying my day until I read this...RIP, FRiend.
Very sad news, a great Freeper. And I know on FR you knew him well, so my sympathies to you as well.
He was a good freeper...rest in peace.
Sorry to hear this
Oh, no.
I’m so sorry to hear this.
Prayers sent.
I’m so sorry for your loss. My sympathies to all his family and friends.
Sad news. Thanks for letting us know. It’s been a long time for so many of us and time is catching up.
He was in good spirits Friday.
He had been battling a long-term illness and perhaps wasn’t as great at taking care of himself as he was others.
I believe he probably first fell unconscious and therefore passed in his sleep peacefully.
He was fortunate to have some very good friends in New Orleans and his final rest will be with family in Brew York state.
I’ll probably do my best to dumpster dive some classics of his. Such a great sense of humor. A good man.
And a very talented musician.

=======Music formed its major and minor tonality in its meanderings through Europe’s cultural life. The musical revolution also occurred at the beginning of the twentieth century with Arnold Schonberg as its first protagonist, but initially it did not entail a break with every form. Atonalism, however, opens the door to the liquidation of what has been traditionally considered Western music. In the ongoing musical revolution, the leap into a world without norms leads to electronic or industrially produced music, which lacks an essential element of traditional music: namely, the overtones.
I think I know what this fellow means, but he’s certainly not a musician since he does not know what overtones are. If he’s referring to traditional harmony, then he’s right about Schönberg, but not about pop/industrial music, which although can be mindless, rarely “breaks the rules” of traditional harmony.
Jazz does, and quite often. It also happens to be a bona fide art form. It simply “stretches” the rules of harmony, just as Wagner did.

I’m sorry for your loss.
I was wondering where he was.
5.56mm
What the hell??? He was a young man, younger than me.
Another of the great class of ‘98 gone.
Sad news,many exchanges with him over the years.
RIP. Pardek signed up the same week I did. That was 19 years and change ago. Long time, old friend, lots of water under that bridge. We pick up the torch and we keep marching.
He was a better Senator than those in DC.
It was a shock to see his name, and yours, Askel5.
Glad you are still around.
May he rest in our Lord’s arms
I’m so sorry. Prayers for his family and loved ones.
Prayers and condolences to the family.
One of the best FReepers ever. Rest in peace.
