The Post-Mortem People



We read the story "The Post-Mortem" people in class on February 2 and 4. On the last day everyone answered at least one question about the story. If you missed the class, or if you have other comments to add, here's the place to add your comments. The questions we asked in class were:



        • Do you think the author made an accurate extrapolation? Explain why or why not.

        • Can you cite any news stories that you can relate to "The Post-Mortem People"?

        • What is the authur warning us about?
