Carol. Great to hear you had a connection with him. I knew NUTHIN' at all about him. The movie promo with Robin Williams and the red nose turned me off even checking him out. But.. in this day and age, an unreconstructed hippie with a degree, some books, a movie, and a REAL positive outlook on life can't be bad!

A line from his lecture:

(approaching a terminally ill patient) "So, you've only got a week to live? Well I'm your man! Last person I saw only had two days! Boy are you lucky!"

Weird...but fascinating.
