The only thing I know other than what's been mentioned is that Pom said he previously taught at Washburn.
I live just down the street from Washburn. If there's anything in the paper I'll forward it. What a tragedy!

I'm actually speechless. I really hope it wasn't Pom.

I am stunned to read this thread. Pom and I have had our battles but that is politics and in the grand scheme of things not really so important as many of us (myself included) make it. I hope Pom shows up and we can go another round or two. If not then best to those left behind and to Pom I say journey well.

It's a terrible tragedy, and especially sad if the victims were Pom and his wife.
Even at 77, he retained a passion for politics. In a spirited political disagreement, Pom wasn't accustomed to giving any quarter, and I don't believe he expected much, if any, in return.
Didn't Bill Clinton contend that politics is a contact sport? From what I observed, Pom accepted that as one of the (imperfect) realities of life.
[Maybe in a few hundred years the species will be wiser. Then again, maybe not.]

Yes, that is Pom. Lothar had a son in Hutchinson. He was civil with me even when we disagreed. he was quick to PM and say a kind word. It is a sad day.

Can I be the [censored]?
I wish it was copper or 5-10, at least pom was coherent.
I'm saddened by a loss of a fellow Jayhawk, but I'm a firm believer in Karma.
Take your shots, at least I'm being honest.
