Don't take this the wrong way. I'm not complaining. I haven't even decided yet whether I should click the "Create Thread" button. I'm just curious. Was public opinion significantly altered by the spectacle of the Terri Shiavo case? Have your own opinions changed in the past few years regarding the ethics of providing extended mechanical life support to a person whose brain no longer functions? If so, why?
