The point of death is to satisfy the second law of thermodynamics. Seriously, I don't know if there is a philosophical "point" to death.

Can one now conclude that Einsteinsqd has lost his mind?
You are watching way too much TV, Einstein.

Mentat, you are going down! Draw your sword! ( starts raving like a lunatic) ( psyenergy blasts the wall, and runs out with pants on fire from re-bound psyenergy blast screaming I WILL HAVE REVENGE!)
Note: This is not actually like me, but I just think it is cool to bring my two favorite interests, Golden Sun and physics in the same website.
