        @siracusa I was thinking the other day, what if our grandparents had been on Facebook? How will grandchildren look back on our tweets?

        @codinghorror I think it'll be great for them. We tried to get out grandparents on video and audio as much as we could, to have a record.

        @siracusa my condolences. Was it a recent loss? He seemed like quite the character from that video.

        @siracusa I hope it was a peaceful passing. Your video was very poignant for me. My grandfather will likely pass away soon.
