Auto Accident at SANE Conference Kills One
Several people have submitted news from SANE 2004 that a car crash involving several Free Software developers has killed one and injured two others. Richard Stallman was in the car earlier but apparently had been dropped off prior to the accident.
Honestly, other than the fact that it's Stallman, it's JUST a car accident. How many of us can say we've never been in one? I certainly feel badly for Mr Bakker, this happens all the time. The fact that RMS was in the car prior to that is just a coincidence. How many other people had been in that car over the course of the weekend? Let's not sit here and talk about how close he came to possible tragedy, instead let's send our best wishes and hopes to the other victims in the accident that are still alive. If there's anyone able to appreciate how we feel, these two guys are at the top of the list.
