    Creator of famous Dilbert comics has died at 68. During last decade or so he gained additional fame for his controversial public opinions.

    As such a wide range of obituaries are available with varying assessments. I post link to one:

    'Dilbert' Creator Scott Adams Dies at 68: Leaves Final Message to Fans

    Because it includes his closing statement in part and link to it in full on youtube (for those tube enabled). He converted to Christianity as a recent Pascal wagerer.

    I'll admit, Dilbert made me laugh back in the day. But so did the news that his 2nd wife split five minutes after her pre-nup vested.

    His first wife and her sister were taking care of him at the very end. As usual these days, a complicated situation.

    I used to hang the relevant Dilberts in my cubical and my manager once stated to me that was management abuse. I stated that it's only abuse, if you admit to doing what the strip depicts.......;):rolleyes::love::whistle:
