Is Paul McCartney dead?

By Robert Fontenot, About.com

Question: Is Paul McCartney dead?
Answer: In your Guide's opinion, no. As Dave Marsh and Kevin Stein pointed out in The Book of Rock Lists, it was Paul who sued in 1970 to have the Beatles dissolved, an action which is legally impossible for an impostor to do. "However," they goes on, "it is true that when Paul reads his reviews, he sometimes wishes he were dead." Ouch.
