I'd say Mary hit the nail pretty squarely on the head here.  5
minutes (ok, I lied, 2 minutes) of googling made it pretty clear
that being able to breathe and having a credit/debit car were as
valid a set of commanilities as any...and I'm not certain about the
breathing part, as I am sure that there at any given moment a large
number of credit cards still active for dead people.
