...presidential candidates stopped. A number of ambitious New York politicians looked like presidential timber, but Governor Nelson Rockefeller, New York City Mayor John Lindsay and Representative Jack Kemp failed to win their parties' nominations; Governor Mario Cuomo never declared his candidacy.

What's more, Dr. Donald Landry, a nephrologist at Columbia University, points out there are people who consciously don't register for organ donation for religious and other reasons, and it would be unfair to press them on their beliefs. Most folks, however, hesitate simply because they don't want to face their own mortality...
