The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Graham had a ruptured carotid artery...

I'm reading now that it was an aortic dissection. Not carotid. Yeah, nit-picky. Your point about no conspiracy still stands.

Aortic dissection is usually fatal, unless you happen to be near a hospital when it happens. Even then, survival is iffy. I think there are a couple of flavors of dissection. One of them has less than 50% survival rate. (Not a doctor, so some medical person can correct me if I made an error.)
