I'm only a man in a silly red sheet...

Dammit.

This wasn't the way the story was supposed to end.

He was Superman.

He was supposed to pull off a miracle and walk again.

And stem cell research would prosper and thrive because of his success.

Rest in peace, Christopher Reeve. You will be missed.

Yes.
I was hoping we would see him walk again.
He held so much optimism for that goal.
Such a good man.

On the other hand, it does underscore his message that lots of people will die unless we can do some basic research to get this fixed.

Not a good way to drive the message home though.

I know I'm probably aiming low, but I can't help thinking Christopher Reeve is just the latest victim of the anti-science, neocon mindset.
