Whereever it is put, I'm sorry to hear it. He was delightful in his role, tho I thot the movie as a whole paternalistic. I wonder if 59 is considered old for a bushman?

As I see it, music AND other arts related deaths stay up here, politicians, inventors, whatever else are in the lower section. At least, that is how I see them interpreting it. Sounds like a good rule of thumb to me, but it doesn't make that much difference, I suppose. In other words, when does white become gray, and gray become black?

Some anthropologists consider the bushman a separate race, making four total. They are not black. The main reason for the
decision is simply numbers. Too much bother for so few people.

N!xau, the diminutive bushman catapulted from the remote sandswept reaches of the Kalahari Desert to international stardom in the film ''The Gods Must Be Crazy'' has died, police officials said Saturday.
       He was estimated to have been about 59, although he himself said he did not know his exact age.
