This is probably going to piss someone off but what I found myself
saddened by this last weekend was that Princess Di's death got so
much coverage and Mother Teresa's passing was barely touched on. 

I found it really disturbing. Where are we when our fascination with
the rich and famous has taken over to the extent where the Princess
Di's funeral becomes the most watched event on TV ever and the only
pictures even shown of Mother Teresa were of her meeting Princess
DI?
