Another thought

Do ya'll think the reason some of us are so into the pagentry and ceremony and ritual of a state funeral is that:

1) Since were a relatively young country and we have few ceremonies and the main thing that unites us as a county is non of us are from here and we dont have a lot in common so its rare that we do stuff like this? And...

2) As greeks we are all about the symbolism and pagentry and its kinda cool to see it on a national level - ya know, the whole country doing it?
