Hey everyone. This is the follow up i said i'd post on Randy Pausch. (This post probably might not count as an econ thing, Mrs. McDaniel, but i'll post another one. I wanted to follow up on the post from before.) This is a little about Pausch.
Randy Pausch (born October 23, 1960) is a Professor of Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, and Design at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In September 2006, Pausch was diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer. He pursued a very aggressive cancer treatment that included major surgery and experimental chemotherapy; however, in August 2007, he was told the cancer had metastasized to his liver and spleen. He then started palliative chemotherapy, intended to extend his life as long as possible. At that time, doctors estimated he would remain healthy for another three to six months.
This link below is a website from ABC. I posted the link for the whole lecture on the previous post. This one below is the stories from the interview of ABC. There are5 different "parts" in the whole story. It is definately a worth while thing to watch. Hope everyone can take a little from it.
