Hi

Do you know that S. Sheldon is dead? If so, what was the source through which you received this news? How did you react to it?

Hi Tom,

Sorry, never come across the late lamented so I can't react. All I wanted to say was welcome back. We've missed your pertinent and interesting questions.

Hi Tom

Yes, I'd heard about that -- his death was reported in the news, of course. It's sad that he's gone, but I'd say he certainly had a good and full life. Have you read his autobiography?

Yes, Tom, I also heard of the tragedy on the news. I’ve got some of his books but not all his works have impressed me.

Are you sure he's really dead? Maybe he's on the beach with Elvis. :D
