As an inveterate thanatologist I have been enjoying your website for a number of years and this is the best yet! 13! well done - and the year isn't over yet. My money's on the pope.....   For next year's list I would like to suggest Margaret Thatcher as I believe she will not last v. long without her precious Denis. She is already looking very frail (good thing you cannot see the smirk on my face as I write this) so I hope she lasts until January at least.   Keep up the good work!   all the best,   Kate
