It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

I used to really enjoy this crazy guys show when it first came out. Crickey, he was nuts!

It's so sad about the family (very young children and wife) he leaves behind.

Exactly! He was one of a kind. The irony is that even though he lived an adventurous, and sometimes dangerous life, he survived all that to fall victum to a very rare and unforseen event.

This only serves to strengthen my belief in the chaos theory. Absolutely no one could have predicted that this would happen to him.

OMG...I swam with sting rays in the Cayman Islands...the guide kept telling me to stand up and it was wall to wall sting rays under my feet...yikes....I was really scared....they rubbed their flaps against my legs....eeeeewwwww....I held one in my arms, but it's barb was gone...probably lost it to a shark.

Seriously I feel very sad about this death...a terrible loss...JJ
