NOTE FROM CLEMENT:
I usually do not write articles that are out of topics. But his story and the presentation of Mr. Paush has really touched me in a very special way. His presentation was so full of truth about our values and life that I listened to it a few times. If you have NOT listened to it, I would recommend very strongly you do so.

Randy Pausch, Known for his "Last Lecture," Dies
Randy Pausch's final talk at Carnegie Mellon, in which he celebrates having fulfilled his childhood dreams, was an international sensation
By RAMIT PLUSHNICK-MASTI

Associated Press Writer

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon University computer scientist whose "last lecture" about facing terminal cancer became an Internet sensation and the basis of a best-selling book, died Friday. He was 47.

Pausch died at his home in Chesapeake, Va., said Jeffrey Zaslow, a Wall Street Journal writer who co-wrote Pausch's book. Pausch and his family had moved there last fall to be closer to his wife's relatives.

Pausch was diagnosed with incurable pancreatic cancer in September 2006. His popular last lecture at Carnegie Mellon in September 2007 garnered international attention and was viewed by millions on the
Internet.

In it, Pausch celebrated living the life he had always dreamed of instead of concentrating on his impending death.
