I agree with you about our culture's automatic reaction to sue. But the "dying after a long productive life" bit is kinda weird.
No matter how long and productive one's life is, one doesn't want to die. Life is always too short for those who have had productive lives. Now if he were a depressive and was in some ways always longing for death...now that's a different story. But you can't say that someone should be pragmatic about the length of his life when he's been given a death sentence. -C --- In SciFiNoir_Lit@yahoogroups.com, "md_moore42" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > There's no requirement to sue after all.
