Audience? I didn't know that masses had audiences.

Actually, I think audience is the correct word... he wasn't in the congregation, but appeared briefly at his window.
The Secret Service White House staff was told that the Pope died on Tuesday March 22nd. This is not a rumor. I know an agent personally and he told me. All the pictures of the Pope since then have been earlier photos. The one on CNN today does not even look like the Pope--he is a stand in. It will be anounced after Easter that the Pope has passed-Monday or Tuesday so as not to interfere with Easter.
Umm, that comment is ridiculous.
