    I just heard some sad news on talk radio — Longtime Slashdot
    AC spammer, general nuisance, and ne'er-do-well "APK" was found dead
    in his Syracuse, NY home this morning. There weren't any more details.
    I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him — even if
    you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to Slashdot
    culture. Truly a Slashdot icon.
