joe barbera dead
please, please, no one come on here and ask 'who?' as a lover of cartoons, i immediately knew when i saw the headline that the surviving member of the hanna-barbera partnership had passed away. this animating duo brought us tom and jerry, the flintstones and the jetsons--just to name a few.
my condolences to his family. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16272572/

he and his partner created some of my favorite childhood cartoons. I'm glad he at least lived a long full life and died in the company of loved ones. He lives on through his work.

An amazing legacy of great cartoon art.. The Flintstones, Jetsons and Johnny Quest were my absolute favorites growing up.. Cosmo Spacely and Race Bannon being two particularly favorite characters, and "T.C." (Top Cat) another classic..
I believe The Jetsons was the first (1968?) broadcast ever in color on television...
