Kevorkian was a force of nature, no doubt. Haven't seen the film but followed that stuff pretty closely when it was happening.

He was one weird dude though, a bit death obsessed, and there are some fairly valid criticisms of the way he operated. I do however, support his cause.

In the nineties he was speaking at my college. I had a show on our college radio station and when I spotted him in the student center I ran up and asked him if he would do a station ID for us. He asked what I wanted him to say and I replied "This is Dr. Jack Kevorkian for WXOU, -rock till you drop!" He declined, saying he didn't think his lawyer would approve. Can't say I blame him but it would have been sort of epic as far as station IDs go...

That would have been quite the station ID. Too bad he declined.
