VPI Shootings

Yikes, just up the road a couple of hours in Blacksburg:

Lone gunman kills 21 at Virginia Tech

Reports suggest that the gunman is dead. There is no news at this point as to potential motivations or victim patterns. Unverified hearsay reports suggest that the gunman performed execution-style killing of several VPI students. Some survivors have been transferred to the Carilon New River Valley Medical Center in Radford, just off of 81. Cripes, that must mean that whatever's in Blacksburg has been filled up.

The VPI&SU website has been overhauled to provide details on the matter. As of 1240 hours, 22 are dead.

I had a couple other things planned for today, but there is no value in posting them now; perhaps tomorrow. This publication's prayers and sympathies are with the victims and their families.
