Well picked Neeper. His last words were: "OK Picard, stick that in your pipe and smoke it..."

What is ironic is in the last paragraph.

"In what must be a record, Wanamaker was linked into to over 15,250 other community members, many of whom he exchanged notes with daily. He also contributed to 375 blogs and was expected to start an online column about the impact of interactive communications on health, when he died."

I love interacting with members all over the world,,, but I got to tell ya, he was way pass me on this one. :)

It is sad, very.

A few years back I was approached by a company to do their graphic work. They supplied me a heap of floppies with past work. When I asked where they came from they told me their previous designer had died mid ad at the keyboard.
