Excerpt:

Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie told hundreds of people gathered Saturday night that Inouye went from being thought about unfavorable as a Japanese-American at the beginning of World War II to acquiring the regard of the country 's innovators in Washington. "Rest easy, you are at home with us in paradise," Abercrombie stated. Abercrombie's opinions towards the end of an hourlong ceremony marked the beginning of seven hours of public visitation. Inouye's closed coffin, covered with an American flag, was escorted in by seven pallbearers along a %%PRO10%% to the center of the Capitol courtyard. After the ceremony, it was put in a big outdoor tents with the U.S. and Hawaii flags behind it, as people lined up outside to pay their regard, beginning with Inouye's spouse, Irene Hirano Inouye. Inouye is simply one of several Hawaii icons to lie in state at the Capitol in Honolulu.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
