It's not the "looking at dead people" thing, I'm ok by that. It's the "looking at a loved one corpse" thing I've a problem with. I could go to a funeral if I'm not familiar with the dead person - altough I'm not even sure what to do on a funeral, and what to say. I could do like my father, who once mistankenly "congratulated" the dead man's wife - lucky she didn't hear or didn't notice.
