And people who have no fear of death don't react to fear at all.  If 
they seem fearful it is more likely that they are just annoyed.  I would 
say that extends to many people in this group who after years of 
meditation should no longer fear death.  IOW, to the fear mongers we are 
a dangerous force because we can't be controlled by them.
