My Condolences

Yesterday changed everything. I wanted to write something engineering-related, or industry-related, but now seems neither the time nor the place. Watching the story unfold yesterday was horrifying for me, and I am watching from a distance, from the comfort of my own office or home. I cannot, nor will I attempt to, comprehend what the student body is going through today, and it is for that reason that I offer my thoughts and condolences to the families and friends of those injured or lost yesterday. As the campus attempts to piece everything together, and as reality sets in, understand that the well wishes extend far beyond the Blacksburg limits, and far beyond this blog. Virginia Tech is a proud, strong university, with an equally proud and strong alumni, and today that community mourns the loss of some of it's own.

My deepest sympathy, love, and support go out to the campus, friends, family, the City of Blacksburg, and the far-reaching alumni. Stand tall, and be proud of your school. You are all in my thoughts.
