<BR>
I am so saddened by this event and I just want you to know that I’m thinking of and praying for all of you. I just don’t understand why people are so angry. I was watching the news today and the chief constable from London was on, a Mr. Paddick, I believe, and he said that the Muslim groups were just as horrified as the other faith groups and I literally started crying watching that on the TV. I realized how much I want for people to come together in this world and how some are working so hard to pull us apart. I’m really thankful for our silly little groop, because even though relatively few of us have met, we’re an example of how people from wildly different backgrounds, interests, and faiths can truly care about each other. Didn’t mean to get so philosophical, but I just wanted to tell y’all that.<BR>

Chris (the other one)<BR>

<FONT SIZE="2">As a City worker I was pretty close to all this. I was late for work and so arrived after the bombs had gone off. There was a lot of police activity and, of course, the tube was out but there was no panic. <BR>
It's all pretty much back to normal today.<BR>
