Darth Vader died, the other day.

No one noticed that, either.

One is an entertainer and Dr. Williams was a Ph.D. economist, professor, and political commentator. 

I'd rather know Dr. Williams and let the people who like to dress up in Disney licensed gear and play at space fantasy enjoy Mr. Prowse.

I think they were both special in a way.  One was a wonderful diversion (the actor) the other was a great thinker and teacher.

Kind of nice to know his last day was with his class.  He would want it that way.

I cant find anywhere what cause of death was just that he died after teaching his last class at the university.

 Anyone know?

I read that he died in his sleep last night.  Couldn't find confirmation of that anywhere though.  So far as I know, he had not been ill.
