Randy Pausch Dies
Randy Pausch, a computer engineering lecturer from Carnegie Mellon University has died. He became kown for his Last Lecture wich has been viewed by over 6 million people on video and was turned into a book – The Last Lecture, which is how I came to know him.
He was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer and following this gave his Last Lecture. He survived way beyond the 3-6 months given him by medics. The book and lecture are moving and very memorable and leave you with a desire to achieve your childhood dreams. Well worth reading or viewing:
