I guess it made me a little sad when I noticed the change. I wasn't sure why, but after thinking about it a bit, I believe it was because PM has been a comforting constant thing for me in a rather random world, so a sudden change seemed unsettling. But everything changes, I suppose, and this doesn't really alter the character of the place. Maybe also I thought it would be nice to be a saint without having to be dead first...now that's become harder.(However, I did get some emails a while back offering degrees and titles based on one's life experience, and I think one could be pope for $35 or thereabouts. It was just a minor popehood, though...)
