Thank you, TIME, for such a balanced feature on someone who was an ordinary person living an extraordinary life. He was close to my age, and in his life I saw my own--at times good, at times bad, always uncertain. In his death, I saw my own frailty. I felt as though he belonged to all of us. I understand the loss that Americans, along with a great number of others, must feel. Today we are all a family mourning the loss of our little boy. ROB ELFORD London...

The tradition was carried on by filmmakers like David Cronenberg; though later celebrated for the high-toned horror of The Fly and Dead Ringers, he never matched the shocks of his early, amateurish offerings such as Rabid and They Came from Within.

(Indeed, I was doing some slicing myself. My hedge fund has been unloading dot.com stocks as if they were contaminated.) If we had a Dot.coms Anonymous, I don't think my story would be any worse than half a dozen other entrepreneurs...
Dale had spent a dozen years in the group, earning 30 merit badges, rising to the level of eagle scout before becoming an assistant scoutmaster. But then Scout officials saw a photo in a local New Jersey paper that identified Dale as a leader of the Lesbian/Gay Alliance at Rutgers University. The Scouts promptly expelled him. Dale's ouster, the court declared, was "based on little more than prejudice"; he had "never used his leadership position or membership [in the Scouts] to promote homosexuality, or any message inconsistent with Boy Scouts' policies" of being "morally straight" and "clean...
