Yes, Yogi, very sad. The thing that I really don't understand, and I asked this question on another thread, is why do all of these people, if they're going to commit suicide, have to kill innocent people? Why don't they just go off in a corner somewhere. Do they think they're making a statement by murdering another person?

"Every place like that trading area should have at least two armed guards on the premises, so people like him will think twice before acting out..." Problem is, the guy apparently was going to kill himself anyway, so a couple of guards would not have stopped him from at least trying. For the most part, the guards are there as a preventive measure...if he walked in and started blowing people away, not much they could do. Rich
