How About A Fidel Castro Death Date Pool?

Time magazine states Castro is terminally ill with stomach or colon cancer. He looks it.

Mmm... November seventh, 2007.

Christmas, 2006.

Edit to add: The above remains my official entry, however, I was thinking that there would be an interesting bit of closure to his making it to July 26, 2007, since that's the anniversary date for the beginning of the Cuban Revolution.

I have tried to approach this from a prediction point of view rather than a logical one. Having studied the calendar for the end of this year anf the beginning of the next I have a strong feeling for February 4th.
