If this isn't already up somewhere, Bill passed 21 June I think. A thread up on AR has some details.
RIP Sir.

Oh, crap. I hate to hear it. Bill was a great guy and published some of my stuff back in the ‘90s.
Was the ghost writer on several hunting “autobiographies” and edited the SCI magazine for a spell. I liked Bill and am sorry he is gone.t

I knew Bill back in the 70’s and I’m sad to hear of his passing.

Lets start over and talk about something you know about, like Mexican food.

I'll have to say, I've never felt the urge to watch the Simpsons either. YMMV.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Never heard of him. The Simpsons are an electronic equivalent to waterboarding.

Seen this thread and it never registered. Gawd I feel like such a mannlicher now.
Now that it's out....hmmm, over the years I may have tried to watch one episode, I just never could see the appeal, It couldn't keep my attention.
I'm more into squid billies, ATHF, robot chicken, rick & morty

Well some little c**k s**ker undid all my edits. This seems to be all he does is go around undoing edits and requiring newspaper proof of what is posted (even though Quimby's article has no sources). Does anyone have a link to Quimby's obituary?
