I remember watching that movie, "Into the Wild" and thinking how tragic the ending of his life was. I think they might have come to that conclusion in the movie -with regard to that plant.

For anyone who wants to see it, I noticed its on Netflix instant play right now. Sometimes things like this also end up on youtube, but I didn't check there.

I recommend the book as well, Krakauer is a pretty terrific writer.
