It's time we began a humane project for dealing with these unfortunates - it should be fairly easy to get them together (put enough rubber chicken on a plate and call it something ridiculous and they'll trot right on in) and we can just lock them in and let nature take its course...
Oh and double for the idiots that can't recognize the sarcasm!

True - but the latter bit that explains it doesn't explain the premise.
It's too short to quote that much from it anyway."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot

That's why my living will basically says my brother can make decisions for me if I am unable to. I trust him to do the right thing.
