Hi Chris-

That is cynical!!!!! I never thought about it from that angle.

Oh Man!!!! My dad just came over here and told me that he saw on the news

last night that the average American spends $4K in health care dollars per

year (whether in medicare, insurance, etc....). That's incredible! And he

said that most of this money is spent in the last 30 days of life (so that

means most of health care money is spent on the dying). Did anybody else

see that news clip?

Take care,
