Should I or shouldn't I =/?

I just noticed Broadhurst is currently logged in on the main server. I was going to send him an e-mail about why nobody told me about George Greenlees' death sooner, but I decided to cancel the e-mail instead of sending it. Should I rant to him that nobody told me about Greenlees' death sooner or not =/? I already ranted a bit to Broadhurst when I suddenly read that Paul Ellis' sudden death in the paper, especially since our family had known the Ellises for several years. I didn't know Greenlees outside of 3 quarters, I think, of sophomore quantum class, so I don't think I have a right to rant this time that much. I still would have liked to have known though and not 1.5 months after the fact in the Star Tribune's obituary section. I think I'll e-mail Kris, my classmate from undergrad through graduate school, and see what she thinks. She took the same sophomore quantum class with me via Greenlees. I wonder if she's heard or not. When Ellis died, she already found out before I did through the physics grapevine --;. I suspect she already knows about Greenlees as well. Death isn't something one should rant about normally, but seeing Ellis' death via newspaper obituary just doesn't seem right. This is why I skim the obituaries daily since no one ever tells me these things. My family thinks I'm morbid --;.

physics, deaths
