I just heard that Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf from Howard Stern’s show has died. The news story didn’t say how he died.

Anyone know how he died? Thanks.

A thread with exactly the same title as this one was started just a few days ago: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=85516](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=85516)

I’ll close this one, but any remaining questions on this subject can be dealt with in that thread.
