Thank you, Henry,

I'm not a religious man, but simply wrote what I felt at the moment. I did send a
post something like it to another list--and was informed it was dangerously
off-topic.

I will no longer write there again. Not because I'm righteously indignant, but
because somewhere, sometime our petty selfish preoccupations should be
suspendable for a few moments in the recognition of our common humanity.

The purity of this fool's list is so profoundly inconsequential in the swirl of
these incidents that it's almost laughable. The trouble is that I don't want to
laugh at anybody right now. Whether or not he deserves it. Our lives are now
upside down and we just need some time to decompress, that's all.
