The Last Lecture of Dr. Pausch: Inspirational

[Naleena]

In case you are new to "the adventure" as he referred to it, Dr. Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 - July 25, 2008), a Computer Science Professor at Carnegie Mellon University, delivered an incredibly inspirational "Last Lecture" on achieving your childhood dreams that has become a worldwide phenomenon due to its positive themes and Randy's moral authority to deliver it: his almost unbelievable bravery, dignity, and humility in the face of his terminal pancreatic cancer.

I remember watching these lectures shortly before he died; they're incredibly moving and I was really touched by his positive attitude despite his illness.

Thanks for reminding me Naleena! I really enjoy your posts.
