What about Bill Bixby? It says 1993 he died.
I don't remember him dying in 1993. I don't remember him dying at all, but playing roles later than that.
I thought he died earlier than that? I remember my mom being upset about him dying... and she died in June of 1993, and it says that Bixby died in Novemeber of 93'
Ok, this isn't celbrity related, but my Grandma died in 1998, and I was homeschooled for a bit in HS in 1999 early 2000. When we first met with the homeschool teacher, myself my dad and my teacher clearly remember talking to my Grandma. She grilled the teacher on her teaching skills and what she knew, if she'd be a good teacher, etc. People are confused on the year she died , we have the obit, but everyone remembers her after she died. I remember going into her room a few months after she died to find her sleeping in her bed. I was shocked and told her she was dead, died of cancer, but she said she was fine and then got up and made me breakfast. Those were surreal times for me actully because she was there, in the back of your mind you know she's dead, but yet she's right in front of you and your friends... my best friend thought she died in 2001.
I think some of it is time shifts tho... or something because a week before my mom died I refused to go into her apatment, saying that something bad was happening and that I couldn't relive it again. The next week I went into her apartment, and that night she died. Then a few weeks later I remember vividly that I went to her apartment it was all cleaned out except for a few things we loved to do. We played a game, and watched tv. We talked and then she got really sad when she looked at someone by the door, and said that she was running out of time. I asked her why she coudn't stay, and she said that she wasn't supposed to be here anymore and that she was granted one final weekend with me because she left too soon and I wasn't supposed to be there with her that night.

I got this feeling of high strangeness when I heard of Clarke's death.
I had a distinct memory of him dying towards the end of 1999 or possibly in 2000. I recall talking to friends about the irony that he didn't make it to 2001.
I did a little searching and found this:
graa.gsfc.nasa.gov...
OBITS:
HOWARD E. BARNES: Died on March 8, 2000
CHARLES V. MOYER: December 30, l999 of Lou Gehrig disease.

SYLVIA LOOKABILL: of Bowie, MD, died 2/25/00 of cancer.
Would anyone care to explain this?

Arthur C Clarke was british and lived in Sri Lanka. Why would he die in Colorado? I can think of less pleasant places to die, but it's not like the world doesn't have other medical facilities that are at least as good as whatever is in Denver and a lot closer to his home.

Question:
The current word is "interpretate". I've used it many times in my life and simliarly heard it more times than I can count. However, even as I type the word into this text box, and hear the sound of the word in my head, it doesn't feel right.

What about Abe Vigoda; the actor who played Fish on Barney Miller?
I remember hating that TV show and remember him dying way back when.
