I went to my friend Jeff's memorial today. He was probably the smartest person I know. He worked at Pixar back in the 80's when there were only around 20 employees. I met him at the Arecibo Observatory when I was an astronomy grad student. He designed and built the spectrometer for one of the receivers that we used. He also worked on the Nintendo Gamecube and Wii, and many other interesting projects.
Anyway, his best friend Bob read to us Jeff's "last words to his friends" (which he wrote on April 1 this year) at the memorial....one thing that I can't agree more with - "Stay away from organized religions".
I have no problem with my friends being religious, but I will remain an atheist :).
Update: One more advice from Jeff - "You don't have to show your receipt when you shop at Fry's."

He may be right.
Past experiences have proven that he's right most of the time (not that I want to admit that....)
The same 99.9% of the time as you?
He's better than me =_=
