5. THE BIG PICTURE Is that she died of Anorexia

has anyone taken this opportunity to attack America's #1 skinny girl syndrome which affects more people than anyone would care to admit?

Has anyone tried to highlight the emotional dangers of a culture that tells women that weighing anything more than an anorexic amount is 'uncool'. just open any fashion magazine... you'll see lots of future Schiavos in the sense these fashion models are always one or two 'missed meals' away from the hospital.

no it's really a crime we are not talking about the substantive things about the Schiavo case, like the circumstances behind why a woman would want to starve herself....
