   Sure appreciate your posting this, Lenona.   
      
   I guess I didn't read the reports of the Thursday, January 4th middle-school   
   rampage in Iowa closely enough; I was under the false impression that   
   courageous and heroic principal Marburger was not too seriously wounded and   
   thus on his way to recovery.   
      
   So now the "gunkid" has posthumously tallied a body count of two [and also   
   himself, of course, but it's flat-out outrageous when press accounts include   
   the shooter in their total, doncha agree?], plus however many wounded   
   survivors there are.   
      
   I'm pretty sure I (more or less) understand why young persons--or for that   
   matter, us oldsters, and middle-aged folk as well--become suicidal in this   
   increasingly wretched century.  But I cannot fathom what makes them want to   
   also take acquaintances (   
   much less strangers!) with them.
