That's so sad. Yeah it's gross and creepy, but just to think that no one missed this man for seven years. I hope that there are enough people in my life that if I went missing, someone, somewhere would be looking for me. I just think that's a scary thought, to die alone and have no one even care. 
I dunno, Nikki. As the years go buy, I think I am on a path similar to this. I enjoy being alone. Maybe he did, too. I mean, it's nasty to go out like this and all, but just because this was how things ended up doesn't particularly mean he didn't die a content man.
