RIP
Hope this doesn't mean the sequel to The Catcher in the Rye doesn't try to come out again.

RIP, JD. My sincere sympathy for his family, friends, and fans.
But hey, let's be honest for a second: No offense intended, but he crawled into a hole 50 years ago, so what's the diff?

To the public, yes. But to his family, he was quite alive.
I understand where you're coming from though.

He never quit writing though. Maybe his family will release of his later writings???

Great link.
In the end, $$ will probably bring out the real truth.
