A great man, but sadly all great people have to pass away eventually. :-( Cheers. |

Still hanging on in there. He did great deeds but his pneumonia in prison it what is the problem, I understand. It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

It would appear that the story carried by the Guardian Express is somewhat premature. I've just checked all the other major news agencies. Nelson Mandela was placed onto life support sometime yesterday afternoon/evening (SA time). Lots of coverage of the SA President cancelling a visit to go and see him late yesterday (about 22:00 SA time), and no news since then.

No matter when his final breath on this earth comes, there are few human beings to have tread through this life that have been as respected and have done as much for the rest of humanity with their time on this planet than he has. Rest in peace, whenever your time is due. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Last I read, he had improved just a bit, now described as in critical, but stable condition. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
