    RE: More on Prof Randy Pausch {dying Prof}

    AH... mystery solved, I think.

    Don emailed that this might have been a tweak he gave me on the offal.

    I urge EVERYONE to watch this guy's testimonial video .. his 'last lecture'

    It's long but it's more inspirational than most anything you will ever see.

    Get the idea here    ... but you REALLY wont get the full effect unless you watch the whole video. Which you should be able to see from this link.

    You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll feel like you didnt accomplish ENOUGH in your life.. or you'll recognize the neat stuff you got to do and did or didnt appreciate it.

    Was all the above with me, I tell ya!

    Pausch' Legacy

    Amazing demonstration of the power of the 'net.

    Goes from obscure engineering prof to listing on Time Mags' 100 most influential, solely on the 'Last Lecture' video

    Watching that video IMHO is the best hour and fifteen mmin you will ever spend. If I was a high school teacher I would show this to all my classes.

    That is a great idea! If we had a 'national curriculum' {which right now we do but we dont....and I'm glad, about the 'dont' part} it should be required.
