Author Message   Speedfreaks101 Posted on Tuesday, February 10, 2009 - 10:25 pm:        There is something that bothers me here in the states and I am curious if it exists the same way across the pond. Here it seems people have a morbid curiosity with death. We have open casket funerals for people to see the corpse and have "closure". I have never understood this and I'm curious if it is strictly a USA phenomenon or does it occur across the world?   Danger_dave Posted on Tuesday, February 10, 2009 - 10:27 pm:        Some parts of NZ culture it is a custom too. I haven't seen it in Australia.   Bill0351 Posted on Tuesday, February 10, 2009 - 11:11 pm:        "People have a morbid curiosity with death" What other type of curiosity were you expecting?
