Whoa! It's close - Srgothard takes a late lead, can DrMatt come back? ... M$10 UP FOR GRABS! Question of the Day?!?

Srgothard - Such a lovely touchy, contraversal subject that I love seeing come up. The variety of opinions about this question makes it the best question of the day = ).

Doh! My avatar gets distorted at that size. Thanks for the nomination, anyway.My vote goes to #drmatt because I don't think that many people even know that most airlines offer bereavement fares.

I found out years ago when my paternal grandmother died.

Drmatt gets my vote. Srgothard had an interesting question too... tough to make a decision today.

Srgothard Because Mahalo Answers participants have a good track record for civility in difficult, polarizing discusisons. Dr. Matt, a close second.

Drmatt Because I think that this is an important issue that, unfortunately, people often need an answer to but isn't easy to find.

Srgothard - Wow. I'm amazed at the back and forth comments. Good question.

I'll go with #srgothard just because it sparked interesting conversation.

Teduncan, nice question (and nice avatar), you get my vote!

Srgothard... This issue always makes for quality discussions.

Srgothard Although, I usually disagree with her on the subject, I am glad that she keeps on keeping on.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
