Yeah, wasn't there a book written that said El Duce from The Mentors
killed him or had him killed?  And then, mysteriously, El Duce himself
died a short time later.  And implications that Courtney Love was involved.

I think it's rubbish.  Didn't Cobain escape from rehab, disappear for
a few days, buy a shotgun, & then wind up dead?  Sounds like a suicide
to me.  

People write crazy shit all the time.  Books on the reality of angels,
books that say we never landed men on the moon, books on alien abductions,
etc., etc.  People love a good conspiracy.

Usually, you can use a nice tool called Occam's Razor to wade through all
that bullshit.  Basically, it says that the simplest explanation is probably
the correct one.  However, interestingly, you state that it's easier to be-
lieve that Cobain was murdered rather than committed suicide.  How so?
