You will be able to freely download this toolkit in a couple of weeks!"

He was a smart young man. People have all kinds of theories about why he shot himself, I don't think it had anything to do with disappointment. Lots of people go through that, no one gets through life without lots of disappointment (no one gets through a <i>day</i> without lots of disappointment). Depression is a disorder. Sometimes when the chemicals in your bloodstream are wrong they make you feel worthless. When that happens it can be hard to stay in the game, remembering that such feelings often pass, pretty quickly. At age 25, lots of people don't know that. It's a tough time of life. But I guess every age has its unique challenges. Sat, 13 Jul 2002 18:09:59 GMT http://scriptingnews.userland.com/backissues/2002/07/13#When:11:09:59AM
