for my two cents-I don't think HST was a genius. He was good in his way, but let's reserve the term genius for those who really are. Sylvia Plath, now there was a genius. AND! For added interest, she, too, offed herself! What's with all this offing of ones self? And why do so many talented people do it? Personally, I'd be scared to do it. I mean, what if the Catholic's ARE right and you DO go to hell for it? That would kinda ruin the whole reason why you did it.
