Some of the pictures remind me of the OKC bombing. I'm surprised more aren't dead.

Unfortunately, I think that count will probably rise.

Nihil Obstat

That's rather near Hilde. I believe she mentioned once that she goes to Oslo for shopping. She's fine though.

Glad Hilde's okay!

The Prime Minister's speech was pretty inspiring as a response. More about compassion and caring for the injured and the families of those who had died than the vengeance rhetoric you hear many places.

BBC is now reporting at least 80 dead from the shooting, and undetonated explosives on the island... same suspect involved in the bombing and shooting.

:( wow.

It sounds like the guy is a Norwegian Tim McVey. Not Al Q, not a Libyan hardliner, a homegrown right wing extremist.
