If it was as simple as that, we would all live forever
It's not about putting their jumpers on...
first of all, older people's bodies have less tolerance to extreme conditions, thus being more fragile than 20 year olds.
They usually have some chronic illness which makes it even worse (heart disease, for example, they are falling like ducks both on extreme cold or extreme hot weather, regardless of being out or at home).
Poverty - you'd be surprised to know how many people don't have enough means to provide adequate or any heating at all. There are too many homeless people and they are actually the most who die.
Remoteness - when it's snowing heavily & temperatures stay under 0 disabling the snow to melt, many villages, even whole towns became unreachable. That stops people from getting medical help when they need it, even food sometimes.
Power cuts - very common in winter time, especially at these extreme temperatures. Electrical systems get overloaded and fall down. Heavy snow on transmission lines can cause power cuts, as well. Also, those conditions then make it harder or even impossible for crews to reach and fix them.
So these are just a few reasons why people die when the weather is like this and it's mostly the combination of these factors that becomes fatal eventually.
Trust me, no one dies because he went out in a T-shirt to go to the local store, no one
Yeah.... also, the climate changed drastically in the past 20 years here. Summers were up to 35C (mostly around 30 C) and winters usually no more than -10C (mostly around 0C).
Nowadays, not one Summer passes by without a series of days with +40C (and when it's windy, it feels like a hair drier is pointed in your face) and than this cold wave, with over -20C.
It's just too much stress for a normal organism to have a stretch of more than 70C during one year... and that's why many, usually already weakened people die, just extraordinary conditions.

Just look at her face lol
Liam just showed up to support what we're talking about here 
Exactly! He just joined the forum as demo racer, he probably isn't even an American, but just a provoker who's laughing his ass off right now at our responses.
Stay calm people, don't throw any more bones to this hungry beast
But if you didn't know that orange and that seller existed until someone brought it at your home and offered it to you, you would never have consumed and paid for it in the end.
I agree to Tomhah post, it is a new, modern way to look at things. Perhaps as a new way of marketing in 21st century, instead of just screaming: "IT IS MINE, YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR IT!". Companies DO invest a lot of money in marketing and this was completely free for them.
I bought my LFS S2 license after trying a cracked version and can't wait to give them more money for S3.

Nothin'.... just chillin'...
Well first of all, that short list surely could not be "all they own".
Secondly, the thing that's slowly getting to the top of my list is people stealing from others and than charging you for the same thing only for less of the money.
Yeah... "here is what I stole from Sony, but you'll have to pay me 3.5 EUR if you want to download it".
I seriously doubt it's Anonymous on that link. I am more to believe someone's using the whole mess to (of course) profit a bit more.

You want to tell me that Chuck's vote is worth only 2939 likes? Do you want me to give him a call and tell him you said that?
How is it possible to have 304 views and 2.424 likes?
I get this when I try to enter. And when I do, what ever tab I click I get the same message: "This is the NEW MEGAUPLOAD SITE! we are working to be back full again
Bookmark the site and share the new address in facebook and twitter!"
I'd wait a bit on this, before trusting them it's the real deal.
Yeah, Klutch, by all means watch the whole movie, you'll have a ton of laughs before coming to that clip 
. It is a good speech, which in these times unfortunately sounds too utopian... but every word is true.
When I want to recommend somebody to understand where we are, I usually recommend Brian Cox's "Wonders of the Universe" episode 2 "Stardust" (similar to Hyperactive's choice).
It's an hour long episode explaining who we are, where we come from, what are we made of etc... who ever understands this will understand how stupidly we waste what has been given to us.
