Death of a Salesman…

I direct you to this obituary of a suicide in Loudon, Virginia — the link coming from the FACTnet page, and I want to point to the details left out — or rather THE DETAIL.

He was an editor for the American Institute of Physics and for John Wiley & Sons before founding WorldComp(1) in 1978. He had been a member of the National Committee of the National Caucus of Labor Committees(2) since 1974.

Mr. Kronberg also directed amateur theater, and taught poetry and drama classes to children and adults for many years. He edited The Campaigner, a cultural magazine(3), for a number of years. In 1992 he co-founded the quarterly, Fidelio(4), a journal of poetry, science and statecraft, which he edited until 2006.

Maybe he was involved in some other things from this list as well?

I suppose this is what the life’s work of a high level Larouche associate looks like.  I’m particularly impressed by the reference of “The Campaigner” as “a cultural magazine”.  I have the table of contents of the issues of this “cultural magazine”, starting in 1969, at hand.  Yep!  There we see a move from Trotsky-love to Rockefeller-hate.  And love of fusion.  Lots of articles on fusion.  And the Economic Crisis which is coming in 15 minutes.
But you mourn the dead, and can’t trip yourself on the details, which if mentioned wouldn’t garner much sympathy to the casual reader, only embarrassment and maybe pity.
