Dead Bitcoins

I'm curious about how many Bitcoins are effectively dead (i.e., lost private keys, owner dies, etc.).  I imagine it is more than 10% of all coins.  It will happen less and less, but with so many people who mined when they were worth next to nothing, I would think most of the early Bitcoins died.  What do you think?
