Hans Rosling died this morning...

[Celestiall Nightfire]

Hans Rosling brought truth to the world and fought to stamp out ignorance through the Ignorance Project. He was a medical doctor, statistician, global health specialist, and a forward thinking man. I've shared Han's work countless times. This morning Hans Rosling died of pancreatic cancer.

So many good videos and educational lectures he gave.  If anyone else is saddened by the news of his death, maybe share one of his videos as a comment.
