Sad Day In Tech

If you are into technology then you've probably been following the story of James Kim, a former TechTV analyist and Cnet correspondent. His family went missing just around Thankgiving in the mountains of Oregon.

His wife and two young children were saved, but unfortunately James did not survive. His body was found yesterday in the mountains of Oregon three days after going out to find help for his family. They say he traveled 10 miles through the treacherous terrain in freezing temperatures to find help for his family before hypothermia finally took his life. Superhuman indeed...

I never knew James, but being a long time TechTV loyalist and member of the TWiT Army, I couldn't shake the sense of loss I had for our community and the Kim family.

I ask anyone who reads this to send your prayers to the Kim family in their time of need.
