About a year ago, I started reading Patricia Cornwell, and have enjoyed her books immensely. I have just started reading "At Risk" and would like to know about authors in a similar genre whose styles are comparable. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Sorry for all you America-haters, but I would have to say the United States -- groundbreaking liberties, size and diversity, and almost unparalleled power and influence (rivalled only by the British Empire at its height). I would give Chinese civilization a close second just for being so large and long-lasting.

Other top scorers in my book would be Rome, France, Egypt, Aztecs, Japan, and Babylon (I'm probably forgetting someone important, though).

I am sorry to sound so very morose in my question. But so many people have asked about the meaning of life here on 'answers', and elsewhere, as well. Yet, no one asks about the meaning of death. Is this because death is a taboo topic? Is it because we all possess some sort of instinct of preservation?

No one knows the meaning of life. It is one of the greatest mysteries known to man. However, I do not think that we should be discouraged from desperately searching for the truth. I think that there is some significance in just asking these things of ourselves. It provides a sense of awe to our existence.

I don't mean to sound pessimistic in asking about death. It is a drastic change that we undergo, and, depending on our choices during our past life, it will determine where we spend the rest of forever. Literally- the sleep of eternity. The prolonged slumber.

I realize that not everyone shares my sentiments. Some people believe other things.

What is the meaning of the grave?

I believe it was Aristotle who said that reason is the only thing that separates humans from animals; therefore we should achieve things that go beyond what animals can achieve, but still animals none the less. Yet I hear many people saying that we are not animals at all. While I do believe that we are different from most animals, as far as our basic natural instincts go we are animals. Obviously, there are some people who are going to agree with me and some who won't, but what is your view on this?

I am typing a family history book, as it was told by my grandmother's great aunt. As I am going through what was recorded, I am wondering if one would normally reorganize the order in which things were told.

Please note that this book is being recorded only for my family, and I will not be trying to publish it. I just want the story to remain true to her stories that she shared, and I am unsure of the etiquette when recording a verbal story.
