Will Michael Foot live to see 2009?

Voided

Sorry, but these question odds are too low given that there is less than one month to go until 2009, and no news of an impending illness. If you'd like to recreate the question, starting odds should be around 90%

Background:

Michael Foot, former leader of the Labour Party has looked at least 200 years old for the last quarter of a century. Will he make it through the next four weeks?
