In 1962, celebrated Hollywood costume designer Irene Lentz, believed to be despondent over Gary Cooper's death, committed suicide by jumping from her 11th-floor room window. On March 3, 1966, veteran character actor William Frawley was strolling down Hollywood Boulevard after seeing a film when he suffered a major heart attack. His nurse dragged him to the hotel where he died in the lobby. Contrary to popular belief, Frawley did not live in the hotel at the time.

An article 3 months later in the Daily Star stated that shortly before his disappearance while en route to Covered Wells, Spicer visited a man named Bill Haynes and tried to commit suicide twice while there. One theory is that Spicer, who had a history of evading creditors, planned his "suicide" by pretending to be despondent while at Haynes' cabin and then quietly made his way to Mexico (possibly Ures) where he spent the rest of his days. Another modern historian reports that his body was found in Ajo, Arizona in 1885.

Suksdorf, Howell, and Cusick were not strong rivals as they all collected in different areas: Suksdorf in the area of Mount Adams, Howell on Sauvie Island near Portsmouth, Oregon, and Cusick in northeastern Oregon. All three corresponded with one another, and they had to rely on academics to help identify and name specimens and at times would get frustrated with the delays; Gray generally responded more promptly than the others. Both of Suksdorf's parents died on October 22, 1885, probably of influenza. Suksdorf only collected on four more days that year and seemed to be despondent for years.

In the spring of 1945, Szilárd took the petition to the man who was soon to be named Secretary of State, James F. Byrnes, hoping to find someone who would pass on to President Truman the message from scientists that the bomb should not be used on a civilian population in Japan, and that after the war it should be put under international control in order to avoid a post- war arms race. Byrnes was not sympathetic to the idea at all. Thus, President Truman never saw the petition prior to the dropping of the bomb. Szilárd regretted that such a man was so influential in politics, and he appeared to also be despondent at having become a physicist, because in his career he had contributed to the creation of the bomb.

The work contains hundreds of omens in a hundred and five sections covering a calendar of twelve thirty-day months. The first sixty six sections of Iqqur Ipuš ordered by activity concern those of daily human life, such as “If a man digs a well, … in the month of Ajar, then he will be in want of grain…”, “If a child is born in the month of Abu, that child will be despondent”, while the last third of the text concerns natural phenomena, such as metereological events, like thunder: "When Adad hurls his voice". Like the series Enuma Anu Enlil, it contains many astrological omens, such as those concerning earthquakes and the rising of Venus, but its relationship with this prominent work is otherwise uncertain. The Assyrian royal hemerology, “Fruit, Lord of the month”, excerpts several of its omina, but with a man replaced by a king and a house by a palace.
