so long, professor

I just read that Randy Pausch died today. Somehow, I thought through sheer will and good humor, he would have beaten the cancer.

I also hate the phrase "lost the battle with cancer." It sounds like it diminishes the person, somehow.

Apparently, he went to Oakland Mills High School, and I think his mother still lives here.

If you haven't seen his Last Lecture or read the book, it really is worth the time.
