(1) this is not the first brilliant young hacker that PG has lost to suicide and knew closely

(2) this must have hit PG like a freight train, I barely knew Aaron and I'm still reeling from it

(3) if and when PG speaks is up to him, he's certainly not under any obligation

All I meant was PG is pretty vocal about most things related to hackers / company founders etc. With Aaron's sad news being on the front page of HN for the past 3-4 days, i would have thought he had something to say about the issue. I understand he has no obligation ...

I'm sure he does. But that does not mean that what he has to say is for public consumption. Also, given PGs closeness to Aaron in the past he may very well simply not be in the mood. Give the man some space.
