Here's an article describing what it feels like to die, from a scientific point-of-view
Speaking of dying, I recently read "Spook - Science Tackles the Afterlife" by Mary Roach (the same woman who wrote "Stiff" ... the book about cadavers) and she talks about how this one researcher, back in the day, wanted to measure the weight of the soul. So he took very ill people in hospitals (I believe they were pnuemonia/consumpstion patients, but I'm not sure) and stuck them on huge scales, and watched for any change in weight when the patient finally died. There was a slight change in the scale when the patient died, but that only happened for one patient out of like 20 tested ... So ... yeah ... I'm not sure where I'm going with this comment ... but ... uh, the more you know? ^_^;;
