Sometimes I think of someone from the past and naturally turn to the Internet. I wondered last week whatever became of years-back track star Houston McTear, and was shocked to find out he had died of lung cancer in Sweden at age 58 eleven days ago, Nov. 1 (it was Nov. 12 when I looked him up). His death received little or no mention in the sports media, even though he had been on the cover of Sports Illustrated long ago.
