KB> The tradition of mankind is that a person is alive until they die.
 The tradition of mankind?  Are you making this up as you go along, Kit? :)
 People throughout the world believe that there is something REAL which
 transcends the mortal flesh and blood body.  They think of this as the
 SOUL, SPIRIT or GHOST which has the ability to _LIVE_ outside of the body.
 Some belief systems / philosophies / religions also contend that the soul
 has the ability to re-incarnate, re-generate or re-materialize.  There is
 plenty of evidence to suggest that this is true!  Disney attractions which
 reference ghosts are built upon these beliefs!   So... about your claim:
 KB> Walt Disney has, in fact, died.  He therefore is not alive
 KB> in the traditional sense but rather lives on through the
 KB> movies, parks and characters that he created and developed.
 Maybe the next time you watch the movie "Ghost," you'll reconsider your
 opinion about the "tradition of mankind" and allow for the possibility
 that the soul, or spirit of Walt Disney is still very much alive.  :)
 Walt Disney lives in the hearts and minds of people around the world!
 In the Disney Tradition...
