I don't know if I'd call the posthumous interest in Aaron as fawning. He did a lot of great work and had admirable ideals. He no longer has the capacity to be an agent of change. And while you can say his spirit "will live on", part of that passing on the torch comes from a thorough examination and celebration of his life. It doesn't just happen sometime down the road.
