# I think you probably have
a fair point - that's not for everybody.

But not everyone has the same radar as you - we can see humour in things that are just not funny to most people.

# you're right
I grew up in Belfast at the height of the "troubles", within 20 mins of a major disaster somebody would've made a joke about it, maybe it's therapy?

# I was going to
say something about Princess Di jokes etc, which is the same.

I've seen lots of WTC gags on here, and even one or two Belsen / holocaust ones. Those fall into the same category, but we got over it.

If it was all day every day, maybe it would be a bit much. It isn't, obviously we do have enough self restraint to make this place what it is.
