Jon Stewart almost completely avoided talking about the Virgina Tech shooting today. He basically said, “I’m not going to talk about it.” It’s a good choice, but the rest of the show leaves an achy feeling in my stomach thinking about all that he’s ignoring. I guess that’s part of the irony that the Daily Show is my primary source of non-tech news.

The shooting is just awful… and to happen in an academic institution, a place which strives to perpetuate the highest goals, integrity, dreams… ughhh. Sickening.

My thoughts are with the students and their families tonight.
