I think this website provides a valuable resource that can be interpereted in many different ways by a reader.* When I first came here I was really depressed about death because it wasn't something that I was very familiar with, but I feel much better about it now and I'm sure that somehow this site helped me come to terms with the idea.* Obviously one of our natural reactions to dealing with death is humour, and I don't think that that is necessarily a bad thing.* Though I would rather see humourous comments kept out of sight of the mourners.
Personally, far from this being a "sick site" or something that should be left to the morbid I'd welcome the study of this site in schools (at a reasonable age though).* Firstly to bring the idea of death into the lives of the students to get them used to it and also to prevent some of them suffering the same fate as those mentioned here.* I certainly would like my information posted here when I croak it.* Speaking of MY death, one problem I used to have was a constant feeling that I was somehow "doomed" to die young, it was a revelation to come here and see from their profiles that all these people who obviously didn't feel "doomed" snuff it anyway.
Anyway, that's just my two cents.* I put a poll up too out of curiosity.
