"Life Alert" wakes the dead?

"I've fallen and I can't get up!"

press a button and help is on its way...

just saw a commercial for "Life Alert", and it's a good idea and all (though a bit obsolete with cell phones so common and handy...)

but what I want to know is why the commercial has C. Everett Koop as a spokesman...

sure, he was Surgeon General...

but isn't he dead?

stepping up to the plate

this guy....

hit me...

about a month ago...

seems even though he doesn't have insurance, he is stepping up to the plate and doing the right thing to make my car right... he told my insurance company that he is taking out a loan to fix my car.

ok so it's not THAT miraculous that he is doing so... Wisconsin law declares him at fault (he rear-ended me) ... and if he was NOT stepping up, he might face a lawsuit where he might end up having to pay more... but it's nice that he is "manning up" without needing to be coerced with a lawsuit...
