<p>Thats sad- and strange.
but what is really weird is the grammar discussion.</p>

<p>emeraldkity, recently I saw another new item about a death, and the reporter referred to the deceased as “laying” in the place where found. I have to say that this drove me so crazy that I almost wrote a comment!</p>
