An interesting look into the mind of someone leading up to their planned demise.

Here is the website that he coded to go live minutes after he pulled the trigger.

Sad and strange story, but he genuinely seemed like a decent man that just felt he'd lived long enough.

Edit: Another neat part of the story, he tricked everyone into believing he buried a hidden treasure, only having the map lead to a beautiful Arboretum. Unfortunately, I am pretty sure the message would be lost on the people that chased it.
