I remember Alex's RMA vow of silence, seeing as we were in the same peergroup. In fact he and i were roomates for awhile in NYC, not long after we graduated. He was definately a unique person, smart, talented, but unfortunately troubled..... I wish i could say that i was shocked to hear that he took his own life, sadly i don't think anyone who knew him was. Our peergroup is planning a get together soon in LA and we are planning on sending his parents a video message from all of us. Apparently his mother was trying to find us all when it happened, but became to overwhelmed with it all and stopped.
Welcome Jacqueline. I recently found this site too. It's kind of a trip. I asked the same questions about the whole "anonymous" thing.... Most people on here won't give up who they are. Why?? I'm not sure, but they have their reasons - i guess.
