My best friend for the past 26 years died this evening. He was 54 and finally gave up his long battle with leukemia. I saw him yesterday and he was in so much pain. I am glad that pain is gone, but very sad that Mike is gone.
Some of you knew Mike. Without Mike, there would be no Antiwar.com. I would have long ago given up political action if it weren’t for his constant prodding and pep talks.
Mike insisted I use my political time efficiently and get on the Web, urging me to secure the Antiwar.com domain back in 1995.
Mike gave me constant input and advice to help build Antiwar.com. He wrote one article for us, Superman vs. the War Party.
Mike was very active in the Libertarian Party, and held many positions and ran for office once or twice. His views on the LP are most notable in his "Turning Burnout Into Victory."
I love Mike and I will miss him so much.
