Well caser...his initial question was about people you have never met vs. people you have never met....(dying) and why is one more important than the other.

I care that Hitler is dead. (I prefer it) Never met him. Yes I do care if people I do not know personally are dead or not.

Because I care.

I don't think you are confusing caser. I think HLJ is trying snuff out "celebrity hype" when people really are disappointed. I think he was an awesome actor and will be disappointed to not see him in new films.

I have always liked Jack Nicholson and will disappointed when he kicks the bucket too. He's getting old.

I wish Susan Sontag and Hannah Arendt were alive too though...so I'm not the best to speak to about these things.
