I did
some research -- the numbers are available if you are willing to really look for
them -- and the news is really a lot worse. The simple truth is that most lives
end in death, I calculate about 98%, plus or minus 4%. This is based on careful
sampling, and, though it may seem counter-intuitive, seems to be true of all
cultures. Also, I found out that Eskimos have many words for death, if you
include euphemisms.
There
is also some research that suggests that if enough people die, then more will
die -- a sort of 100th Monkey effect.
Cheers,
Lawry
