I hope not either, it's truly sad but the fact is he would have ran off the end of any track.

THe Huffington Post article sensationalized the word "DEAD" too much.

Despite the efforts of scientists and doctors worldwide, 10 out of 10 people still die. That's all of us. Really, how would you prefer to go? doing what you love? or lying in bed...

Pardon my morbidity this morning but, the article really rubbed me the wrong way.
