"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. ”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt

We knew this was coming, but that doesn't make it a damn bit easier.
So I read today that Sue Burns, part owner of the SF Giants, and Frank McCourt, author of Angela's Ashes, have died. The latter had been ill for some time, the former I think was rather sudden.
It does seem that at least one relatively famous person per day is dying now and being prominantly reported, although few that had such a celebrated ongoing relationship with his public for as many years as Walter Cronkite.
