   Verily, in article <1099nei$1pdt$1@gallifrey.nk.ca>, did   
   doctor@doctor.nl2k.ab.ca deliver unto us this message:   
   >  Their romance is cut short when Timicin reveals a devastating truth: he is   
   60 years old and must soon return to his home world for "The Resolution"â¤?a   
   ritual in which he will voluntarily end his life. This is a deeply ingrained   
   custom on his planet,    
   meant to ensure that the elderly do not become a burden on the younger   
   generations.

   I don't even remember this episode, but it sounds interesting. It might   
   have some implications for death with dignity (aka MAID).   
      
   I wish you added your own thoughts on these episodes instead of just   
   posting Gemini's output. Human discussion is always more interesting. Up   
   to you, of course. :-)
