It remains a mystery to me that so many of the good guys seem to leave us while they're young, yet so many of the bad guys stick around through heart attack after heart attack after pacemaker installation.
I suppose I should be philosophical and take comfort in the fact that Steve did more in his fifty-something years than most human beings could even dream of doing in a hundred. But I am sad anyway, and like all who admire creativity, originality, and general human geius, I feel robbed.
About me: I am an ER physician and administrator living in the Pacific Northwest. I live with my wife and four kids. Various other interests include Shorin-ryu karate, general aviation, Irish music, Apple computers, and progressive politics. My kids do their best to ensure that I have little time to pursue these hobbies.

Steve Jobs seemed like a nice guy and his contributions to the world of computers cannot be discounted but this make me chuckle:

He changed the world. Few in history have had the impact he (and Woz) did on the whole world.
It's a sad day for techies!
