Haha, I still have them too. They are all in a place of honor on my overstuffed bookshelf.
I guess it wasn't the actual death part that shocked me. I mean it was in there that he was probably not going to make it, but it was like the funeral scene that did it for me. I'm a self admitted sap, however.
Sometimes I'm just too shell shocked to cry, but another one that did it for me when I was younger was The Chronicles of Narnia.
I love Data too. He's an amazing character, and I like caught that part when it was on TV. I think I seriously had it on just a few minutes before that happened, and at first I was like, "That did not just happen." Then they were talking about it afterward, and that crushed a bit of my soul. I also liked Seven of Nine a lot in Voyager, because she reminded me of Data.
I'm pretty sure that if I were to blog/tweet about killing off a character then a) I would do it privately, and b) I really wouldn't want to even hint at it in the first place. Sometimes I feel like the internet gives way too much away, and I want to be surprised.
