John was clearly a guy who had been in the trenches. When he talked about something, it wasn't because he'd read about it, but because he'd actually done it.

And he was still battling on, each day. Even when he couldn't seem to find the words, he'd post something. It seemed to me that his posts were acts of defiance - he was making it through another day, and fighting on.

John fought the good fight, and set a unique example.

Although the Catholic in my echos jazzmandan's prayer, I can't see John as "resting" in peace.

Peace, yes.

Resting, not so much.

My condolences and prayers to all who knew him.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
