Friends: Seems to me that politics is a group sport (?). Whether it be the politics of law making activities, those of moral persuasion, Udall activity or anything where some take up an issue which agrees with their personal beliefs. I tend to dance to a different drummer. My life is my life and how I choose to live it is between me and my God.......no one else. I recognize that public laws attempt to prevent me from doing harm to myself and others but it it still my life and the choices are mine. My death will be a very private matter also. Only those who closely surround me, will be happy or sad to see me gone. It is with those that I will make my wishes known, should it become necessary, and it is only to those and my God that I owe that last concession. I have a Living Will prepared and expect it to be honored. I expect also my remains to be used for science or for helping some unfortunate person if, in their lives, there is a need that some part of me can satisfy. I fully expect also that no one has the right to tell me when I should cease living. I don't need help from outside sources to determine that final act of living. Making something as private as our final day, a subject of public law, whether you be pro or con, to me is absolutely ludicrous. Only I will enjoy the benefits or travails of ceasing to live and unless someone else is ready to take my place at that time, don't even think about imposing your mindset on my how and when..... I apologize to anyone offended by this. I do dance to a different drummer......sometimes. ........Jack *********************************************************** E.
