Virginia Tech

There are many better blog posts about the Tragedy at Virginia Tech than something I could put together (for example - TriDi, Triathlonmom, I’m TRI-ing and Florida-Bound). But, this morning, I was driving to work. A local radio station was playing the Governor’s – unscripted – speech. The car ahead of me had a Tech window sticker. Another drove by with a VT flag attached to the top of the roof. And – it hit me - this comforting sense of solidarity, similar to the days after 9/11, a reminder of how the worst catastrophes in the world can bring out the best in humanity.

My thoughts to all Hokie students, alumni and friends. Your strength and goodness are inspiring the world.
