It struck me hard enough to break my on topic rule because I lived there
until I was seven and my earliest memories are of that campus and walking
up the steps of a building that looks just like the ones on the news to
visit my father in his office. All those innocent early memories will now
be tinged with this.

I feel for you Roger. It's a lot harder when you have personal involvement.
I have friends and acquaintances who were involved with a mass shooting here
in Tasmania when a nut case killed 35 people at a historic tourist site.
Every time I go past that part of the state I think of those people and how
they're coping.
