Carnegie-Mellon professor Randy Pausch gave a lecture in a university series asking professors what they would say in a last lecture before they died. Dr Pausch was also diagnosed with pancreatic cancer with only weeks to live at the time of the lecture. As one of the commentors stated, "[Dr. Pausch] manages to impart some of the most profound, incontrovertible truths about life. Dr. Pausch's comments go far beyond the simple 'feel-good/self-help' platitudes...".
