“Some people like burial ceremonies. This is not the time for burial ceremony, somebody is dead, he is dead, leave him there. This is not the best time for those ceremonies.”

[Black Agnes]

In reference to the typical burial ceremonies there where everyone shakes hand with or otherwise touches the dead person as a goodbye.

This morning I was talking to a family member who spent a good portion of 3 decades in and out of Africa for his job (DoD). He still has contacts in various African countries and I asked him if he had heard from anyone regarding the ebola crisis. He had not but he said one of the problems with Africa and these types of diseases are the customs

" like most of the people in Africa they still believe in magic, voodoo, evil spirits, and much, much, more. Remember, these are the people who believe if they paint themselves the right color (white, if memory serves) that bullets cannot harm them when they go to war"
