I wonder. I visited a local nursing home today - and some of the patients looked like their right to die was being deferred. I'm not sure I'd want to hang around and take a daily shaky inventory of neurons lost and Depends fouled. If my next trade goes spectacularly - maybe I'll go to an offshore clinic and have my right femur hollowed out and filled with one of the new wunderexplosives. And wired to a switch in my cranium somewhere. That way I'll be able to exercise my Right to Die - and maybe even take out a coupla the sobs who are applying the restraints.

Many years ago, my government (USMC) taught me how to kill myself by biting my tongue and swallowing the blood. I have not had occasion to use this skill, but it is really reassuring to know how. Unfortunately, a feeding tube and tied down hands makes the right to die rather theoretical.
