I praise Mark to no end for compiling and publishing these episodes.
Anyone who claims this is normal is either a shameless liar or a delusional fool.
I probably sound like a broken record, but I don't care.
Dear Mark (we are of an age, and of an academic similarity, so I presume so to address you), over a year ago I began to read, seriously, the obituaries of the Lincoln County News (Damariscotta, Maine) a small-town newspaper. In July, I started to rip out, and save, the obit pages. I considered myself something of a ghoul. But (thanks to a commenter's response) came to realize that, like you in your '"macro'" way, I am doing a "micro" version of cataloging this history.
