That's exactly what I thought.  In fact, I made a point of going to the MTV site just to see what tribute they'd paid to him...only to find that not only is there no reference to him on the front page in ANY capacity, but you have to actually go digging onto their news page to find the obituary.  I mean, hell, it's on the front page of Yahoo!; the least you'd think MTV could do is reference his passing on their front page as well.  But, of course, the kids watching MTV today don't know what a VJ is, and the kids running MTV today ignore history and are therefore doomed to repeat it...
