None of the year's mass responses could hold a candle in scope and complexity to the astonishing grief inspired by Princess Diana's car-accident death, of course. (There were even spin-off mass responses of rage toward the paparazzi, who trailed her car into the Paris tunnel, and of generosity toward the charities the princess sponsored.) But other major displays of widespread feeling occurred in the sorrow at the death of Mother Teresa, the anger at both verdicts in the Boston "au pair trial" of Louise Woodward, and the celebration at the birth of the McCaughey septuplets...
