| | | This is very sad indeed, my condolences to his family and friends. On a side note, on my last exploration, I was on a catwalk, and the floor of the catwalk gave way... I almost fell. scared the shit out of me. That is one of the many reasons I haven't explored lately. It is scary to think that this COULD of been any of us. I too have been up in those catwalks in Hearn, joking about falling to my death, I think such thoughts have gone through everyones mind, when they are in such a location. Hearn WAS an accident waiting to happen, and I agree that Hearn will likely, and SHOULD likely be demolished completely now. It is far past its prime as a 'UE' site. I think however that they should somehow keep or relocate the control room, and use it as a museum for electric power or something. Also, I do plan on getting back into the hobby eventually.

| | | Posted by yokes Just a thought.. as the recent article includes a link to here, it might be nice to have a public condolences post that non-members can see.
| Agreed. Regardless, it would be nice to have one without all the bullshit talk that is going on in this thread. I suggest that it be heavily moderated (which is odd for me, but I think a respectful thread is called for), so that whenever someone tries to bring the subject back to themselves, how elite they are, Hearn security, etc. that crap is immediately deleted.

| | | Axle, did you get paid for that article? Half of it is just your quotations. Good journalism for sure. [Mr. Chapman died in 2005 and publication has since ceased]. | The article also seems to imply that Ninj perished in a exploration-related accident (as no other explanation is given and the article is based on an explorer's death). It's amazing the slant that journalists put on stories, no matter the content. He has been caught by on-site security guards, "and they just kick you off the property." He's never been arrested. "The fact of the matter with trespassing is, the most you'll get is a $65 ticket, and that's only if the police can find the owner and the owner wants to pursue this. You don't get put in cuffs; you don't get jailed." | Along with other items in the article, I'm not sure this was a wise thing to say.
| Baby like the way I wake her up, 'Cause I'm a gangsta, I grab her by the butt, Pull her to my side, I'm in deep, Woke that ass up just to put her to sleep |
