Misquoting was I? Apologies, let's get these things right.

I saw this on Youtube today and all of a sudden I was reminded of somebody

This popped up on a housing development near me a few years back, and I only just got round to stopping and grabbing a photo...



Not a tribute, clearly, but I love that there's a sleepy little corner of Norfolk (link) that will be (in my eyes) forever Steve.

Literally the same. just a couple days ago. The world is shit.

Hey come on guys, the world's not shit. If Steve could find joy in a world with no more Ramones in it then you can be a light in somebody else's life. Perhaps somebody out there has a nerdy technical question for YOU. Perhaps you'll make a lifelong friend tomorrow.

There is a short obituary in the new issue of the Northwestern alumni magazine as well.

I wanted to leave a bunch of space for Steve's friends to grieve him here, but instead I left way too much and have been AWOL.

No one needs a eulogy from me—I only had two real-life interactions with him, and in my decade+ here I don't think I've made one valuable post?—but I did want to finally register my condolences on the board.

My sincere condolences to everyone here, and anyone whose world is diminished by Steve's absence, which is everyone.
