Norman Borlaug died a few days ago and I thought it was worth mentioning.
If for no other reason than that over half the people I know told me Patrick Swayze died, and only one person I know mentioned Borlaug's death.
Norman Borlaug saved the lives of hundreds of millions of people, and is one of the most significant human beings of the 20th century.
Just read the Wikipedia article
here if you didn't already know.
Anyways, RIP and all that shite...
