If you don't mind me asking; the circumstances of the Steam launch are troubling. Do you ever go jogging, bike riding, etc.?
Healthcare is helpful when someone hits you with a truck while out jogging/cycling too. So, regardless of the answer he'd probably choose to go Steam anyhow.
It was because of a cancer scare, jogging wont save you from cancer.
One can get cancer no matter how healthy they are.

Insensitive question. I guess maybe you didnt know it was about cancer.
These responses seem bizarre to me, it seems like a knee-jerk reaction to defend Tarn and his decision from criticism when there was none. The question reads to me as Immortal-D simply saying "I'm concerned about your health, are you taking care of yourself and getting proper exercise?" There is no implication that healthcare isn't important- everyone needs proper healthcare, and it becomes more important as you get older; everyone needs to eat healthy and to exercise (even with good healthcare), and it becomes more important as you get older.
I survived cancer in my late 20s when I was in good health, but that doesn't mean that being in poor health would have made no difference. Preventative care like being active, eating well, avoiding risky behaviors like smoking, drinking, and a sedentary lifestyle are all extremely important for your long-term health and healthcare can't do that for you.
I hope the Adams are taking diet and exercise seriously because I wish them long healthy lives.

I did have a question too,
Tarn, I was wondering what your personal opinion is on some of the debates/ideas happening in the Steam suggestions and tileset threads?
