"Last Lecture" Professor has Died


CNN has just posted the news that Randy Pausch has passed away. Paush was 47.

A computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, Paush was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2007. He gave a truly inspirational lecture here. If you have not watched Paush's famous "Last Lecture" it is a must see. The lecture is a story of human imagination, commitment, humour and love, and all in the face of insurmountable adversity.

Randy Paush (1960-2008) is an inspiration to all of us.

Cheers,
Colin
