Antonio, I don't know that either of these examples would qualify as "death wishes". I guess I was referring to Midgley with his tetra-ethyl and Cohen with the offer to eat plutonium (!) as examples that we only become judge, jury and executioner when arrogance (what I call ego) takes over. I don't think that bowing to the inevitability of death is a death wish. I think choosing how we die is a fundamental right and responsibility. I would put Einstein and Feynman in this category.
