Terri Schiavo as Rorschach Test 

Now perhaps you see that utility of Terri Schiavo is as Rorschach Test.  You dangle that pretty, slender alive and aware young face in front of the Power Players (on both the Left and the Right) and you see how they respond.   If they respond inappropriately, then you make a note it, as if they were just some rat in your laboratory.  That is what make Wikiepda so powerful. And it is all true and NPOV; notable and fair.
