car talk host Clack, passed away.

Man, another example of people who in mind would just always be there. Mortality sometimes is realy surprising. You never think, one day they wont be there anymore, they have always been and always will be. Sad day, especially for his brother.

Yeah, my wife called to let me know the news. It is not something I would have seen coming-but then I guess I have listened to their show so many years it maybe shouldn't be that shocking. Sad to hear.

I always loved the way he told bad jokes and cracked himself up doing it.  The man had a PhD from MIT and played at being a brainless wrench monkey. 

My heart goes out to his extended family.

I figured he would have been a person you respected JW. I just hope you dont drive like his brother!

Giving the mans personality I feel its ok to have a joke on here in reference to him.

I hadn't heard.  That really is sad.  I've listened to the show for a long time.
