Here's hoping that the shooter is the only fatality in this horrifying situation, and a speedy recovery to the guard I'm posting this rather bloodthirsty and unforgiving post in my SL blog because of the US Holocaust Museum in SL and the uses of virtualized

First off, welcome to the refreshed SIM: did a little make-over and brought out my spring/summer look--light, breezy, sophisticated, easy on the eyes. You can whistle if you want.

You can read the full story about the tragic death of Rheta Shan here. Rheta was loved by many and tributes to her are starting to pop up all over. I want to add my voice to the choir.
