Very funny - I think pre-order forms should have a contingent beneficiary clause like life insurance! I have often wondered if I would live long enough to seem some items actually make it to the consumer.
I heard that one of the manufacturers has a grief counselor on staff for these situations.
(IMO, it would be even funnier if I mentioned the company, but that would probably cause it to be deleted.)
