A great life now lost forever

Gene Wilder died today at 83 from complications of Alzheimer's. Maybe its insensitive but all I can think about is that if a human lifespan is truly meant to be 120 years long then Mr. Wilder died pretty young. I think there is a lesson. We should be ashamed our culture has allowed such a great actor to die so young. There should be shock and outrage. Life does not have to be so short.

Looking back at one of his most notable roles as Willy Wonka I think there is a degree of irony in this scene http://youtu.be/RZ-uV72pQKI because we live in a world where sweet treats really do grow on trees and from the earth. All we have to do is look around a view it! It is paradise and it has always been here.
