As I mentioned in the Rain Man thread, I just saw that Kim Peek died two weeks ago, December 19, from a heart attack =(

I know he didn't have autism, but still... (thread can be moved to general discussion if necessary)

He had an amazing brain and mind. Just think of what a talent like that could do in a person who has enough social skills to lead a stable independent life.

Besides, Kim, was a cheerful kind fellow. He probably did not have a mean bone in his body.
