wouldnt it be better to just have all the music stations be SILENT for that
entire day in order for people to have a time to reflect in silence??? If
people are grieving and need consoling, most of them probably dont want or
need the music.

It would be a far better gesture to NOT play music then to play whatever
was on that list.
