Ronald Reagan, 40th President of the US, died today at 93, after a 10-year battle with Alzheimers disease.
My thoughts are with the family.
Update: Here's the obituary from the Washington Post, written by Lou Cannon, who wrote what's apparently considered the best biography of the man.

Did you happen to notice that Newsweek and Time have the same pix of President Reagan this week?
And both are commemorative issues!
Yep. The NYT noticed it too.
