I loved the original lecture, and I followed the blog from time to time. I never read the book.

I live near Pittsburgh, and this was just featured on our news at noon. He was a very special individual, and will be mourned by many whose lives he touched with his words and his philosophy.

So sad. His book made me analyze the way I think about things.
