Lots of good food for thought. I've been asking myself why it is I rarely talk about my thoughts on the world beyond myself when I'm on LJ. I think and react to all sorts of things as I'm listening to public radio - I swear Alberto Gonzoles must have been dipped in teflon, or the complete confusion over how to address soldiers with PTSD, or what was reasonable (and not reasonable) to expect administrators at Virginia Tech to have done with Cho Seung-Hui (having been a campus judicial officer, I have an informed opinion).

I'm hoping the "perfect storm" of being done with school and being reinforced that our voices to matter will get to post about more than the immediate of y life.
