    Unhappy So Long Superman...

    Nikki Finke in Los Angeles is reporting that actor Christopher Reeve is dead, according to sources close to the actor. He died suddenly Sunday. News of his death has not been reported publicly yet. His family will make an announcement Monday at the earliest. Reeve was just mentioned Friday in the second live presidential debate by John Kerry. Noting he was a friend of the paralysed Reeve, Kerry said he was in favor of further stem cell research because Reeve could walk again one day thanks to such science.

    Yeah, I just found it too. He seemed like a good man, and certainly had a positive attitude.

    I really did enjoy the first Superman movie.

    Truthfully, he was a Superman in helping to contribute to the cause of Spinal Injury Research. Without him, spinal research wouldn't have increased in public awareness.

    RIP Mr. Reeve. You earned the title of Superman.
