That's so sad. He was great in Cool Hand Luke and The Towering Inferno.

My favorites are Long Hot Summer, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Nobody's Fool. What a great, great actor!!

Paul Newman is a GREAT actor.

A great race driver who could have been a champion had he pursued it full time.

And a better man than actor/driver.

I toast a life WELL-LIVED!

The room she would go in had about 30 people in it. The medium room had like 50 and the large room over 100. She said they were always full! Imagine the money being made off of cancer! Why would they want a cure? It is all a greedy scam..right down to the FDA and drug companies making billions! Doctors like sick patients...there wives need there new Mercedes every year or less! Well, I would say most of them!

Well, I can tell you, my husband isn't driving a Mercedes, and he's a doctor, and he works for the #1 cancer hospital in the United States. Oh, wait! He's a Ph.D. in research. We're driving a 10-year old Isuzu Trooper, but at least it's paid off.

Seriously, though, he agrees with you--from a corporate perspective. That should tell you something. But--don't let that discourage you. There are still many MD's and Ph.D.'s who want to do nothing but cure this mess, I know because he is one of them. :-)
