Reports are showing at least 31 are dead in the Virginia Tech shooting. I don't know what to say.
A gunman opened fire in a dormitory and a classroom at a college in Virginia on Monday, killing at least 30 people in the deadliest campus shooting in U.S. history. The gunman also was killed, and at least 22 other people were injured.“Today the university was struck with a tragedy that we consider of monumental proportions,” said Charles Steger, president of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, in southwest Virginia. “The university is shocked and indeed horrified.”
The shootings spread panic and confusion at the college, which is popularly known as Virginia Tech. Witnesses reporting students jumping out the windows of a classroom building to escape the gunfire.

Wow. My thoughts and prayers are with the students, their parents, and the rest of the Virginia Tech community. I wish there was something we could do, one student body to another, to help out or ease their pain.
