Fragments of a Tragedy

[Ross] Commentary feels superfluous, as Andrew says. For all the talk about how the "YouTube-Facebook-instant messaging generation" has revolutionized journalism during tragedies like this, it's been twenty-four hours since the shootings and nobody's managed to weave together a coherent narrative of what happened inside Norris Hall. I'm still trying to find firsthand accounts from people who were there when the shooting started. Here's one from the Virginia Tech student newspaper. Here's another from the Baltimore Sun. Here are some from a community newspaper in Blacksburg.

Meanwhile, Scientology stays as classy as ever.
