Default Last lecture professor died yesterday

Randy Pausch, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, died yesterday. I do not mean for this to be a sad thread because he was so inspirational and always talked about having fun and enjoying your life. He once took all of his graduate assistants to Disney world to celebrate the award of a grant. He gave a lecture last September when he was told he had a few months to live. I first saw him on Oprah, but you can view his talk on You Tube. I am sad, but thinking about him reminds me to live my life to the fullest possible extent and to quit worrying all of the time about the future. I am working on it.
