    Well, I guess that means everybody's wallet is a little safer now. He didn't exactly have the best rep... And when you weigh +400 pounds, you can't exactly expect to live forever.

    Even though I knew that many of his plants were mislabeled and even though he had a variety of ways of overcharging me, I will miss him. He was always charming and fun and frequently had things I couldn't resist. Every time I bought from him I swore I wouldn't do it again and every time I saw him at a show, I couldn't help buying more.
