So Pinochet has finally died, never brought to justice.

His funeral could be interesting, if it's a state one.

Mass grave under a football stadium?

Maybe it just my 80's nostalgia tendency kicking in, but I am waiting for Maggie Thatcher's reaction.

I have a friend who once stunned a London dinner party into silence by commenting, when her bracelet was admired, "Oh, General Pinochet gave it to me." [1]

[1] She was eight when the gift was given and her father was a foreign ambassador who specialised in Coping Well With Dictators.
