----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Got the following from a friend --passing it on. E.Jahiel ======================================================== Emilia, my 10 year old, and I were watching "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" the other day. She asked me "Why do people always look out the window when someone dies?" Very perceptive. I think she's right--a movie convention. I'm afraid I gave her a completely unsatisfying answer about needing something to do, and getting perspective on the world at large. Just thought I'd pass it along.
