I don't really see what the point of having some extended discussion about starting threads about people who don't already have one, especially in a thread like this where people who enjoyed his music would like to pay tribute to the man.
It doesn't have anything to do with starting threads for people who don't have one. It's about starting threads about people who died, which doesn't really attract musical discussion and criticism, just praise for their work and invariably dies out within a matter of days. So really, the Sparklehorse example isn't applicable to this instance.

Obviously you and I don't see eye to eye on this and that's fine, I was merely raising a point.
