“On one side in Britain you see the Queen’s dignified burial and on the other this mass grave [just discovered in Ukraine] stemming from mass violence,” said Anjli Parrin, the Kenyan deputy director of the Human Rights Clinic at Columbia Law School. “They are two extremes that remind us that the idea of someone missing, buried anonymously, is a violation of a fundamental instinct to honor the dead.”

I love your stuff, Chuck. Those mass graves reminded me of the Karyn Forest. I just hope Ukrainian guérillas have not been carrying out their own reprisals, as happens in so many wars, however nobly their leaders started out.
Thank you, Geof!
