I read something like this, and think, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but, given the way I live and never clean but only rearrange---this could be my fate.

That's a new one on me. More commonly, hoarders die from fire or from entrapment when their piles (that is, walls of stuff) collapse.
I've met hoarders before. Their homes were packed with their belongings from floor to ceiling along every wall so only pathways between rooms remained. People this bad need medical help. Fortunately, increased media coverage equals greater awareness equals better opportunities for help.

After a couple rounds of experience having to clean up after hoarders who could not handle the destruction of their messes when circumstances made it necessary, hoarding incites me to violent rage. I should not go into more detail in this thread. :P

I once read, and the matter seems to have passed into urban legend, that Howard Hughes arranged to have all his urine saved in jars. Well, I haven't gone that far, but I often wonder...whatever happened to all that urine after he died? Did somebody get rid of it, or is it still in storage somewhere?
