...a far better option.

Dying of Alzheimer's is not the best way to die. Actually, maybe there's no nice way. But I'm thinking that it must have been a horrible way for the 228 passengers on the Air France plane over the Atlantic the other night. Apparently, the plane fell apart in a severe storm. Imagine that happening. Pretty scary. I suppose one dies quite fast. Maybe even of fright. Dying of Alzheimer's at a ripe old age would be a far better option, it seems to me. --Jim Broede
