Dennis, here's my way of looking at it: it was a bad blow for everyone everywhere. It wasn't felt differently in Canada or a village near Rome. It was an awful sadness at our special time of the year. It was no time for making points, numbers and comparisons. I thought of Antoine de Saint Exupery's words in Le Petit Prince that it is only with the heart that we can see rightly, as the essence of things is not visible to the eye. I don't know what LaPierre is like in person but his TV persona is "hot" when what was needed in these circumstances is "cool."
