Excellent post and very informative!
It should be of assistance in understanding what is really happening behind the doors of the Vatican, over the next few days and weeks.
The MSM have been chomping at the bit since 1981, waiting for this day and planning their coverage. One word of advice. The media will project Cardinal names as most likely successors. There is a well known expression, about the Papal Conclave: "He who enters Pope, emerges Cardinal". Karol Wotilja is a classic example of why no one should begin to speculate over who will emerge as pontiff. When Karol Wotilja was chosen on the final vote, he fell to his feet in prayer and stayed there for hours. It is an awesome responsibility.
