Results of a poll released in March showed that many Americans have trouble paying for their medicines and that they sometimes don’t take them as prescribed because of their cost. The poll, conducted by USA Today newspaper, the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health, found that 50 percent of Americans take at least one prescription medication daily and that 19 percent are taking four or more prescription drugs. But four out of ten people said that it’s at least somewhat of a problem to pay for the medicines with 16 percent saying it’s a serious problem.

I mean can there really be people dying as a result of an overdose of blogging? In what I think is typical media hype, the NY Times is claiming Blogging may be Dangerous, especially when it is done by bloggers who well,just can’t stop blogging.
They cite a few high profile examples:
Two weeks ago in North Lauderdale, Fla., funeral services were held for Russell Shaw, a prolific blogger on technology subjects who died at 60 of a heart attack. In December, another tech blogger, Marc Orchant, died at 50 of a massive coronary. A third, Om Malik, 41, survived a heart attack in December.
