I was surprised last night that so many of our thoughts on "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow" reminded me of the Death with Dignity bill proposed in our elections yesterday, because it's in some ways an opposite situation of the same questions of existentialism (our word of the evening defined by Thomas). Emerald questions if anti-gerasone is "against nature," while in our world an opposite drug, one that would end life prematurely, is in some ways under the same debate. The link above is this morning's Boston Herald article on the bill, which was narrowly voted against yesterday in Massachusetts. I know you all may be tired with political debate, so this is just something to mull over. One of those "big questions," you know?
Happy Obama to you all, by the way. And Happy Liz Warren!
