The only comment I want to write would be impolite and too soon.

I couldn't believe this news !  I'll always remember great discussions on Infinite Jest with Wrapped in Plastic's John Thorne.  I'll also always remember his appreciation for David Lynch. 

Shocking news.  Very troubling.  Who knew?  What a brutal cruel decision particularly coming from a man with such a grand sense of humor.

 Very sorry for his family and friends.

Yes, he defined the oft misused term "Lynchian" in A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again.
