Here's what it says.
George Carlin
Saturday February 3, 2005
The Guardian

By the time California's counterculture of hot rods and surfing was sweeping America's mainstream, George Carlin, was no longer on the crest of the wave. But without him, the Beach Boys - none of whom, apart from Dennis Wilson, actually surfed - would have been forced to look for a different name.

Carlin, who has died of a herion overdose aged 77, was a pioneer shaper of surfboards and a charismatic marketer of surfing itself. A consummate salesman, he made up for his lack of business acumen by living the surfer's lifestyle for most of his life.

yeah, and you spelled heroine wrong... plus he doesn't craft surfboards and shit, he does comedy, maybe this is A George Carlin that died, but you know damn well it's not the one we've been talking about.

lol, they definitely don't spell it "herion" if it is any different there... herion isn't a word in any friggin' language as far as I know. Either way it is definitely not a drug therefor you cannot overdose from it.

I searched all over google news and found nothing either... it's like there some sort of mass conspiracy to suppress the knowledge of his death. Even the wikipedia article doesn't mention it. Karl Rove I'm sure is at the bottom of this.
[size=85]yea i've too been kind of thinking about maybe a new sig but sort of haven't come to quite a decision yet[/size]

Judging by the crappy, mid 90's design of the site, I'd say it's a VERY unreliable source of knowledge.
