Like I'm sure yer mam told ya: if you can't say something nice, say nothing.
2) I think it's generally accepted that if someone opens an RIP thread there was some interest there, and usually it can be expected that they had some regard for the person. I wouldn't, for instance, have expected anyone to open an RIP Jimmy Saville thread.

Anyway, just let it lie now, as we've both had our say and there's no point arguing in, as it were, the man's resting place.
I would say you had more say than I did. There is a lot of things what I wanted to say but didn't. And I'll refrain from doing so. OK at the time I didn't get emotional over his passing, but for the sake of his fans I bid him to rest in peace. I've said it in earnest, and meant it. I would rather you not reinterpret what I said.
