We several, surely? "When shall we three meet again?" "How about a week next Tuesday?" To misquote Terry Pratchett.
The only death worth lamenting is one's own and we godless souls probably believe that we will not exist to do so. Death is not a philosophical toy, it is a highly probable event and we might as well get used to the idea that we are mortal. My grandmother used to tell me that I would be late for my own funeral. i only hope that she was correct.

High culture - a smelly growth? Clostridium perfringens? I can just about cope with the idea of culture ('the way we do things') but 'high'? High by who's standards? My 'high' culture is alive and kicking thankyou, albeit not growing very quickly. The death of 'low' culture - mindless, repetitive, cheap, exploitative, ill-considered - I would celebrate; but I fear that it may be immortal.
God

Some peolpe are quoted as saying that They "have found God". I want to ask where they find him, I have looked all over the place and I can't find him anywhere. I checked all the normal places you look when you can't find something, down the back of the sofa, the the draw in the kitchen where you keep all the other things that "might come in useful" but hes not there. If any one can help me locate him I would be very grateful as I have some questions I need answering, not major questions just things that bug me.
