Re: News of the Weird by Chuck Shepard, Tues., Sept 10. I found it incredibly tasteless for Shepard to write about turning “a loved one’s cremated ashes into a diamond” the day before the anniversary of so many’s loved ones being cremated when a plane hit a building and they were crushed to dust by the fire and concrete collapsing on them.
Or was it just good timing on Shepard’s part? (You see how the media confuses us?)
