Happy? Really? As upbeat as this guy tries to be, I find this horrifyingly depressing.

Will Oprah be pissed if this guy beats the cancer? It'd be like the James Frey "A Million Little Pieces" incident all over again

I'm not going to comment on the Oprah aspect of this but:

I have to admit, even though his speech was compelling, it seemed ambiguous in message and almost incoherent. -That is, until the very end, when it all makes sense. I too, found it slightly depressing, but once you realize this speech (and book) will embody the the many times a parent tries to instill values unto their child, it's actually quite genius.

This video isn't showing up - can someone fix the embed code?
*dead

But also, this precedes a likely dupe:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Last-Lecture-of-Randy-Pausch
Which should be discarded. But I don't suggest as yet, as the code for this is dead.

I suggest and request:
  1. Fix this code;
  2. Discard the other.


Before I did though, because of the exceptional circumstance of the coincidence of coinciding events, I wanted to be sure it was okay (deads, dupes and discards are an explosive mix) and have the proper oversight.

That is all. And thanks.

Fixed. *return since the video that is a closer dupe is http://www.videosift.com/video/Rapidly-Dying-Professors-Last-Lecture, and actually I think that supersaiyan's is worth keeping as it is a longer version. Thanks for pointing this out, Doogle!
