Oh, hell, no. This is terrible news. The man was one of the best ranters (and I mean that as a compliment) that I've ever read Here's a link to a post of his on Katrina:

Excerpt:

Say 9/11 changed everything now, motherfuckers. Ooops, 9/11, 9/11. 9/11. Doesn't work anymore? Gee, maybe the sea of alligator MRE's once known as the citizens of New Orleans has something to do with that. Now you can shut the fuck up about 9/11. Bush just proved what would happen with another 9/11. Dead Americans as far as the nose can smell.

I loved that man.

I agree Dr. Dawg. The Katrina post was one of Steve's classics. The truth is, Steve wrote in a classic style which few could emulate.

I'm going to miss him terribly.

A simply outstanding human being. This is awful.
