Blacksburg ugliness

Everyone here at the office is hanging on what I can tell them about the Tech situation from my LJ friends' page - seems like all my officemates have been there recently or know someone there.

Keeping my fingers crossed that you're all safe.

Edit: They've just routed CNN into one of the internal office TV system channels, in an attempt to keep everyone informed.

Thanks. I hope everyone's safe, too. It's a mess up here, no mistake.

Fox News is reporting 32 dead.

What the hell is going on? I can hardly think of anything else right now.

Right now, Fox News is probably as good a news source as anything else. That in itself is kinda scary.

No single online news source has been comprehensive; as with the previous shooting incident, the wikis have been a pretty good choice for overview and comparisons of stories (plus not as frequently blocked by workplaces):
