JFKjr

[ahague]

Perhaps growing up in a time where the death loses its significance is at
fault, but JFKjr's death has had really no impact on me.  I also would tend
to think that the reason its effect was event felt was based solely on the
events in November 1963.  That seems obvious at least.  Face it, the guy was
new at piloting and he risked it flying that day.  He also risked his family
and they all just happened to die.  The end.  Yet it just might remind
everyone of how 'tragic' the Kennedy family seems to be.  But that's lost to
the wind to the generation of college freshmen, or so it would seem in my
case.  Then again, it would also be lost to almost everyone that, say,
William
Gaddis died.  A shame. . . .
